If there is a nature reserve with a lake, you would not want to exclude the lake, but if the reserve is a tree covered area, you would want to exclude the lake. In other words: multipolygons should not be used to fix rendering issues, they are for fixing data issues. In the case of a "state forest", it is almost safe to assume that landuse=forest is not the tag for all the areas (because those nature reserves tend to include several landuses, there will not be trees everywhere in a state forest, I guess).
