Yes, good point. And equally, it'd be unlikely for natural=wood and
natural=scrub to overlap.

Admin boundaries overlap and nest all the time, but you wouldn't
normally expect two of the same type and level to overlap.
LGA within State within Country etc

My understanding is that areas should not overlap only where they
are of a similar type. Areas of natural=wood and
boundary=national_park aren't similar and so it's fine for them to
overlap.

I'd say that this is common and expected, and should be handled
with separate areas.
I feel it's very much the old style of mapping to put
'natural=wood' on a park admin boundary.
