The area surrounding a amenity=place_of_worship used for religious purposes
I believe a tag such as landuse=religious is inevitably going to be used as
theatres or climbing halls. Some could be
reactivated for the religious purpose by bringing the altar back.
I still find a landuse tag very suitable for case 1 and 3, where calling
the land *=place_of_worship would be a misnomer for the lack of ceremony.
