Some roads are "service" only and other roads are special "service" roads. OSM is full of other examples of this tagging scheme. Adding afterwards more specific tagging does not help at all, it only adds additional work fr routers and renderers. If we had started out with a clean scheme, yes, it would have been useful, but now it is completely useless.

Just to give you an idea: Only in the city of Berlin, Germany, there are more than 8k parking lots (and each should have a service=parking entry road) and there are 25k "naked" service roads.
