Not quite; landuse=forest is supposed to describe an area managed for forestry. If an entity owns a big tract, and the only real purpose is forestry where it works and the rest sits, it's not wrong to call the whole thing landuse=forest. The real bug is that there are three things going on boundaries landuse (purpose) landcover (natural=wood is an example, but there should be a tag for "trees are growing" separate from it being "natural")
