I can't ignore the landcover argument in this context, and still
believe the natural= key should mean: "a geographic feature", not
"something natural" (as opposed to artificial). I would tag a peak
with natural=peak regardless of human intervention, it's a peak. In
this sense, natural=wood means a "wood", and as not all areas of trees
are woods, I'd question this statement.
A peak, yes. But where the entire hill is made from the tailings of an
open cut mine (very large - both the hill and the mine) I don't think it
can be said to be 'natural'. It is man made.
And this particular peak is prominent in the surrounding landscape, it
is used as a tourist view point for the district.
As with other entities, any further details which gives clarity
should be provided in sub-tags.
as always, all tags should make sense, subtags are for further
details, not to adjust/relativise the meaning of the main tag.
