+1, also because inside a natural=wood/forest object (an entity with a
name, maybe composed of smaller entities with different names, maybe not)
you can have different kind of landuses and landcover and objects (e.g. a
lake, a meadow, a campsite, even a hamlet,...).

FWIW, there is also "woodland", which is less dense compared to a forest.

cheers,
Martin
