do I understand you correctly, we use 1 way (or multipolygon) for every

We use one area for every building:part, plus the usual area for the building as a whole.

Each of these areas can be mapped as using either closed ways or multipolygons depending on the situation and (to an extent) taste.

The type=building relation is unnecessary for all but the most tricky situations, so I personally recommend omitting it for normal 3D buildings. Only a minority of the 3D buildings currently in the database use one anyway, so you would be in good company.

btw.: there's only one aspect of the simple building model which I
really detest: the way building:levels in defined for buildings that
have "missing" levels.

Yeah, sorry for that one.
