I agree that if there is commercial use also, then there are likely
going to be two landuses.  That's what I tried to say earlier.  But most
residential properties are not like that.

Around me there are often 0.5 ha to several ha (1 to 5 or maybe 10
acres, for US people :-) parcels that have a house, some lawn, and some
either wetland or forest, where in the wetland or forest, pretty much
nothing happens other than plants grow and wildlife wanders.  I see that
as fitting into the larger residential landuse as it's basically buffer
from neighbors.

I also think the point someone made earlier is valid: landuse is not
just about buildings.
