I don't think that's a valid comparison, we have a very rough set of
landuses (e.g. a warehouse gets the same industrial landuse as a power
station or automotive production or a cabinet maker) while for just one
type of soil occupation (road) we have a myriad of tags and subtags. The
only reason we haven't yet invented highway=industrial is that there is no
such thing in the real world, it would be like proposing highway=lake for
cases when the road is aside a lake ;-)

cheers,
Martin
