Are you suggesting that there are no relevant differences between a
man-made tunnel and a cave? I can think of a lot – naturally formed,
uneven walls and floors, varying height and so on.
In general, it's also a lot easier for applications to treat two tags
the same than to treat the same tag differently. So I think you really
should distinguish between caves and tunnels.
If you don't want a new key, then use tunnel=cave or something. But in
my opinion, cave=yes would also work fine.
