defaults depend on context. A shop without a PH tag might be open or closed depending on the region it is in and the kind of shop it is. A museum will likely be open on most PH but most stuff including museums will be closed on Christmas, while churches are likely to be open on Christmas. A museum shop will typically be open when the museum is open, etc.. It is a very complex topic and the most sustainable solution is IMHO not to rely on any defaults but be explicit in your tagging.
