[Tagging] One if by Land, two if by Sea

A recent proposal I promoted turns out to have a flaw.

It's amenity=sanitary_dump_station.  Despite fairly extensive
discussion on this list, apparently nobody with a boating background
had a good look at the proposal. The flaw only came to light as
tagging started.

Can you figure out the flaw?

Marine pumpouts are on land, but generally an RV is not welcome.
A proposed fix is described here for your comment:

There are still about a dozen different tagging schemes for toilet
holding tank dumping.  I've consolidated another dozen. I've messaged
a number of prolific mappers of marine stations, and have good
agreement on retagging.

The proposal to render this feature is stalled:
