Not that I'm disagreeing, but for an argument like that to be convincing, you have to explain what makes it unique. *Everything* is unique. We could just as easily say that rugby clubs are different from cricket clubs, so they need special tags. And then, rugby union clubs are different from league ones. And for that matter, QLD ones really are distinct from NSW ones.... I'm satisfied that a "licensed_club": - is a venue where members, their guests, and some members of the public can go - has a restaurant and bar - often has pokies - is affiliated with a non-profit organisation such as a sports club, the RSL etc. For these reasons it is clearly not just a "pub", "bar" or "restaurant". >Anyone have a preference for a particular reason? Because "licensed" implies alcohol. And "registered" implies very little. To the casual reader, anyway.
