If i understand it correctly, building=* values describe how the

used as a pub still remains a building=church.
I fully agree with that.
note that building:use may record the current use.

This never really stands up. Storing the supposed type could only ever work if there's a 'standard' style for each building type. Take schools, which can vary from a mud hut to Eton. If a school building changes to, say  a  warehouse, no one would go & point at it and say 'that's a school'


Using "building=* values describe how the building looks" is recording historical data. We don't do that in OSM
