This appears to be a typical language issue: in German there is one word 
(de:Stall) which is used for the “house” of many animals, e.g. cows, pigs, 
horses and chicken. To a German it seems complicated having completely 
different words for it, but as we use English tags, where stable is dedicated 
for horses, it would be misleading and unnatural for the rest of the mappers to 
use it for cowsheds or pigsties. I am also opposing this proposal.
