there is no indication of this, the wiki remains very generic and doesn't say anything useful. "small" is completely ambiguous, is an ant small?

I agree with you that we should not use landuse instead of actual keys which describe (in the end also in a detailed level) functions like a specific government office. I'd want to use osm to see where I can get a new passport in the future. There are lots of different government agencies and offices? So what, let's start and we'll adapt and refine with the time to come to something useful. > Otherwise, it is endless.

Therefor the foo=bar, bar=x way of subtyping, which implies there is only one kind of subtyping, should generally be deprecated in favor of more verbose subtyping-keys like foo=bar, bar:property=x More than for residential, I see a missing piece in industrial. In Germany, there are 2 quite different types of what in OSM both is industrial: Gewerbegebiet and Industriegebiet, which in OSM could be translated to industrial subtypes. cheers, Martin
