I agree completely in the case of valve directly-operated by button. There are however (much more useful!) variants in which, when you press the button, water begins to flow and a button slowly depresses, so you get dozen or so seconds of a water flow after pushing the button, where you can easily use it, wash both hands etc. before the flow stops. > In addition if the thing wasn’t used recently, you’ll have to wait a long > time until the water becomes cold and can > be drunken. This stands, however in many places on this planet (and growing by the day) there is now limited amount of drinking water, and we often simply cannot afford to waste it - however much we might prefer such luxuruios carelessness are constantly flowing water... -- Opinions above are GNU-copylefted. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
