I don't see where all the confusion comes from. I chose shop=fuel for the exact reason of avoiding confusion with full-service filling stations, which is the primary reason for wanting a new tag in the first place. We want to avoid using amenity=fuel for this type of shop. I have designed a custom icon for use with this sort of shop and they show up fine on my Garmin and Basecamp. It could be modified for use in OSM if needed.
The word fuel avoids confusion with the British "petrol" (petroleum) and the American "gas" (gasoline) and also with shop=gas which already exists to denote a place that sells propane or camping gas canisters. There is no substance named "motorcycle petrol" or "bike petrol", it's normal gasoline. Roofs do not make a petrol station anymore than do electric pumps. Also, roof is an attribute of a building, not a petrol station. Fuel=bottled won't fly either because the fuel tag defines what variety of fuel is available: diesel, gasohol, or whatever, not its delivery method.
