Really?

Let's look at some pictures:

https://www.fishanywhere.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/crystal-coast17-229.jpg

What you are saying (okay, maybe what the wiki is saying) is that all of 
these magically cease to be piers at the coastline and become... what?


I don't think most people share that view.

BTW, Wikipedia defines a pier as "a raised structure that rises above a 
body of water *and usually juts out from its shore*" (emphasis added). I 
would expect that most people would interpret the "pier" in the above 
images as being the entire contiguous surface from the end in the water 
until either a) where the support framework ceases, or at least b) the 
narrower section ends at a wider deck.


I have to agree with others; the wiki is wrong. (And I think carto is 
also wrong about the render order; military areas certainly can have 
piers, so rendering in a way which makes them impossible to see is 
unhelpul.)

Even floating piers may have sections on land:

...unless you insist on separately modeling the connecting section as a 
bridge. (Which I will concede is feasible in *some* cases. Even in my 
example, if I knew how to tag the on-land part, but less so in the 
examples given above in this message.)


(On a related note, this makes me think we should have pier type tags...)

Since your pier connects to a footpath, replace the bit of the pier on land
with a closed way tagged area=yes + highway=pedestrian, or similar
(I don't know if area=yes + highway=footway works).  Just because
the surface the person walks on is continuous doesn't make the bit
that's on land a pier.

If we agree the wiki is wrong, it should be fixed.

If the section over land is raised on legs like the section over water,
yes.  Otherwise, maybe.  Or maybe not.  I've seen a pier where
the service road leading to it goes right to the land/water
boundary.  Floating pier.

I'm often overly-pedantic, but even when I switch off my pedantry I can't
get "main part is over water" from "raised walkway over water."  If it
had said "raised walkway partially over water" or "raised walkway mostly
over water" then I'd go with your interpretation.  As it stands, and taken
in conjunction with that first paragraph, a pier is only over water
(according to the wiki).

I'm almost persuaded.  But the wiki entry for bridge doesn't exclude part of
it being on land in the way that the wiki definition of pier does.

That sentence is ambiguous.  It is compatible with a node on the
land/water boundary that acts as the connection.

So would I, if the bit on land is on pillars.  That's not what the wiki
says,
though.  And not how the OP's example rendered.

So there's a carto problem and there's a wiki problem.  And I was right
to map floating piers the way I did. :)

In such case likely wiki should be fixed. Pier may have also section over 
land.

Or you overintepret it
"raised walkway over water" may be interpreted as "main part is over water"
or as "not even smallest part is over land".

Similarly "bridge over river" does not mean that only part directly above river
is a bridge, typical bridge has also parts over land.

The same with viaduct over road/railway.

"connect the pier with other ways on land" does not imply that pier 
has no section over land.

OSM-Carto renders piers before landuse=military.  That is why you don't 
see it in this case.  That is intentional.

There has been discussion to re-design the rendering of piers to be more 
distinct, possibly more like a footway bridge:
