Well I have always thought office=?? was pretty weird and was USA<br>
dialect for what I would tag as business=electrician or<br>
business=electrical_services. But the tag 'business' is undocumented and<br>
unsupported, although I have used it ocasionally over several years.<br>

I think that office=... only makes sense where the main function of the<br>
premises is to act as ... an office :-)<br>
