 What purpose does the role=entrance have when the node/way is going to
 be tagged building=entrance or entrance=main anyways?

You mean that the role description could be left empty because it
could always be deduced from tags on the member? I guess it could be
possible, but I think it is much much better to have an explicit role
descriptions, foremost for the benefit of the next mapper who comes
along and wants to improve and edit the relation. So that he can
clearly see what the intention is with the different members.

The redundancy is what got me wondering what else the role could be
used for, but I guess there are two parts of that. One is that it
doesn't really need to be more complex and that it's probably fine if
I leave the role part out.

Should I use it on railways stations with subway_entrance and parkings?
