Just to clarify an important point. The hostile_architecture key was suggested
as a main/category tag to go along with specific keys (lying_hindrance,
sitting_hindrance).
Used alone, I agree that it would be very vague and could be difficult to
verify. I would say to only use it in combination with specific keys but I
don't know how this would be followed by mappers...
On the specific tags:
@Josepth Eisenberg(mail below):
As others have said, no_* and *=prohibited loose the notion of hindrance that
is crucial if we want to map physical and visible things. Would something like
hindrance:target = lying_down or hindrance:target = sitting be more clear? And
yes, the goal is to make clear that {lying|sitting|...} is physically
obstructed (no relation to legal usage).
@Martin Koppenhoefer :
"what about benches being completely removed (or never installed), it’s equally
hostile but not mappable. Or shops who are right away not built in a way that
you could sit down on their facade."
With tags like lying_hindrance and sitting_hindrance, we don't look for the
intentions of the builders but we just look for these hindrances. So, we would
not map your examples.
"quite common in Rome are inside corners of buildings filled with masonry
(typically up to 1,5m) so people do not urinate (not a recent feature, most
look as if they were hundreds of years old). And in this case, it’s also
probably more beneficial than hostile in the general perception. At least I
guess many of us would deny a right of public urination in the city?"
Yes with the term "hostile", an opinion could be seen behind it but the term
"hostile architecture" refers to the enforcement/prevention of some
behaviors whether it is good or not. In German and French, they use defensive
architecture/ defensive urban design where it is less opinionated.
@Mateusz Konieczny : ""length was refused as an official key for bench" Why? Is
there some valid reason, or maybe it was part of proposal that failed for other
reasons."
length and width keys on benches were refused because they judged that it was
going too much into details

On the generic tag:
As info:
- "Hostile architecture", a Wikipédia article, a subreddit and 150 000 google
results
- "Hostile design", 20 000 google results

The term "hostile architecture" is too vague. As an alternative "anti-homeless"
is also not precise enough. We are getting closer with the initial suggestion
that the feature is to prevent lying down, sleeping or sitting.
However, I think the tags "sitting_hindrance=" and "lying_hindrance" are not
clear enough in English. The term "lying" is ambiguous, since it can refer to
"telling lies" (falsehoods) as well. Also, in English syntax it sounds strange
to say something is a "lying hindrance", because this would normally be an
obstacle which is lying down, rather than a hindrance to a person lying down.
So it would be better to change the order of words in the tags, e.g.
"no_lying=" and "no_sitting=" , or just simplify to "sitting=prohibited" and
"lying_down=prohibited" or similar. But I admit that none of those options are
perfectly clear. Perhaps someone else has a better phrase?
We want to make it clear that lying down or sitting down is not allowed or
physical obstructed, right?
