[Tagging] Wiki edits, building tags on nodes versus areas

[bulwersator]

Shop and building (with the shop inside) are frequently completely 
separate features/objects/elements.

I guess that push toward tagging POI as nodes is result of fact that in some
situations only nodes are processed properly (at least that is why I tag new 
features in this way).

http://openingh.openstreetmap.de/ may be an example.

Over the past few days there have been a number of wiki edits (mainly but 
not entirely in German) stating that shop=* and similar tags, contrary to 
the “One feature, one OSM element” principle [1], should only ever be put 
on nodes and not on building polygons. I’ve commented on an affected talk 
page without any response.

Is there any justification for these edits?
