Thanks. I don't know why I didn't notice that before.

But now another question: It appears that quite recently, a  
considerable part of both of those church properties have been  
relabeled to "amenity: parking", but I don't see how that can be  
right. The area is certainly not equivalent to a public parking area  
(which the blue "P" icon now on them suggests); it's church property  
and intended only for church use. So why is it proper to label it as  
"parking"?
