Mapping the difference between a
residential estate & a golf course is, IMO, the bare minimum.
Here's an example of a residential community (Bay Hill) that has a
golf course within it:

This is a great example to verify my point. People live around the golf
course but not on it. They definitely don't live in the lake! These
should be traced around or converted to inner multi-polygons.

'Should' being your own personal preference.

Well, not really, it's one of the reasons multi-polygons were devised & implemented.

The golf course is part of the residential community known as Bay Hill.

BTW, what are boundary=landuse & boundary=neighborhood?

Boundaries of landuse and neighborhoods...

You appear to be confusing the landuse tag with the boundary tag.

The landuse tag implies a boundary. There's no need to explicitly declare it.

If using an area polygon ,suburbs etc should be tagged with boundary=. Suburbs include residential, schools & golf courses etc.

Residential areas within suburbs should be mapped separately & tagged with land use=residential. Golf courses etc, should, as you've done, be also be mapped separately, but they should not overlap with residential.


Why is a residential & village relation perimeter about 100 yards in the
lake?

Where else would you put it? Residential docks extend into the lake, so it's incorrect to put it at the shoreline.

I disagree.


Is multi-polygon relation 1274780 a connected loop. In P2 the 'select
all member options' highlight non-looped ways.

Yes, it is a closed loop.


your example, how would you produce a map that showed just
where domestic housing was or calculate the area taken by this housing.
This is what building polygons are for.

I think you misunderstand. I meant the area that contained domestic
housing, not mapping individual buildings.

If it's a front yard, people don't live in it.

If it's part of domestic residence, which can include a house, gardens, sheds, garages & front yards, then yes, they do.
