This may be right but is this usable in osm ?
Same patterns are often seen when we try to map same-context objects on
same nodes (antennas, buildings...)

Agree with you, this should include not only the access but the ability to
stand inside too. Humans can't securely stand in a mast anyway.
The outside access is a consequence of that.
