I'd agree, except for the fact that the primary tag happens to be named "post office". If it were amenity=shipping, no problem. I know, the tag shouldn't really matter - it should be treated as a codeword. And we'd probably eventually get used to it just like we've gotten used to silly things like calling a dirt bike path a "highway". But then again, "post office" isn't used anywhere near as much as "highway", so it'd probably cause a good amount of confusion with people using the editors. So, I dunno, I don't "vote" either way. If I were king of the world I'd change the tag to amenity=shipping. But that might not go over well with the non-US mappers.
