How would you then avoid "multivalues" ?
For example for brand=*
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:brand
If a shop sells several brands (Honda;Yamaha;Suzuki;BMW;KTM),
how would you tag this ?
In the clothes example, we could certainly split the characteristics up in
clothes:for=men/women/children
clothes:material=fur/leather/fabric/denim
clothes:type=fashion/sports/work/wedding
But there might still be multiple values for each,
which clearly mean a listing to me if separated by semicolon.
