if built on purpose, these are clearly a proper category of buildings. "retail" is a very broad term, an in my opinion there is a sense in distinguishing shopping malls from department stores, from shops and kiosks from fast food restaurants, from discount stores. Some examples of retail buildings: https://www.galerieslafayette.de/files/2010/04/YS36520-e1492774396711.jpg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Bnkiosk.jpg/1200px-Bnkiosk.jpg http://www.overtimepaylaws.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/aldi-overtime-pay-lawsuit.jpg http://cdn.corporate.walmart.com/d9/73/c2342aa64fba8241599cc2d4584e/walmart-supercentre-canada_129858013133613481.JPG https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/800/1*PXeZCWAmGm3EHPHeWMHsUw.jpeg It is the mappers deciding which kind of building types they want to distinguish (and at which detail level), but from my point of view, basically repeating the landuse values is barely adding information, and I do believe it is interesting to have the information about more specific types.
