That's really irrelevant to this proposal of moving the dock tag
from waterway= to water= which are both water features. <br>

The dock tag is currently using the waterway schema.<br>

As enclosed water features, "have largely been replaced by
natural=water <br>
+ water=lake/river" etc, and the waterway tag is largely for
linear <br>
objects, what, if any, are the reasons for maintaining
'dock' as a waterway?<br>
