it is impossible to see from taginfo what a tag is used for, and for what it
can't be used. You only get statistics how much it is used

I find this difficult. If I start using a tag in the belief that it means a,
and after two years people decide that this was a bad idea and now it should
mean only a*, am I to review all my previous edits?
Do we really need to change tag definitions, or would it be more sustainable to
require new sub tags or alternative tags when the semantics should change or be
amended?

see previous comment
also, I'd probably have to spend all day checking tag definition pages then ;-)

+1, if at all. Near zero usage should be <10
