Hence, the general consensus is either to tag for the renderer or
not to tag such touristic POIs at all.<br>
It's strange to have to campaign for tagging !!!

this proposal completely breaks the model of decoupling the factual<br>
mapping database from the data consumers and their choices. there<br>
are more data consumers than just the front page on
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org">www.openstreetmap.org</a><br>
and they may be making very different rendering choices based on
their<br>
requirements.<br>
<br>
this render tag notion, if it were to be adapted, would be ignored
by a lot of the<br>
data consumers with good reason.<br>
<br>
you need to get away from this notion that mappers should be able to
force<br>
data consumers to pay attention to their interests; there will
always be lots of<br>
things in the database that don't get rendered in one place or
another.<br>
