Except.... that's not true. In Ireland "handball" is Gaelic Handball¹

Now the tag is clearly wrong, and we need to figure out something about
that. But if you just change sport=handball to sport=team_handball, then
you've entered incorrect data, based on incorrect assumptions.
Good catch. So, it is no good as an example for that. But no matter, I
think the idea got across anyhow.
The idea that automated edits and tag replacements on a worldwide scale
are a bad idea and might have edge cases you've never heard about? 😉
but it is the only documentation we have.
Not really. We have editors, and what they do, map styles and what they
do, programmes like osm2pgsql and what they do. That's a form of
"unwritten documentation".
