For the same reason we don't ask anybody else - we want some universal, 
easy to describe and objective properties. It's sometimes painful and 
not intuitive process to define the "simple" things that "everybody 
knows", but it helps to limit the inevitable mess when dealing with the 
whole world.

So maybe it's just "luxury" or "hand made" clothes (or both)?

If you ask McDonald's, they use a "restaurant" label - so much for 
asking operators...

As far as I remember the operational definition we use is if you pay 
before (fast food) or after (restaurant). This is very clear and 
objective rule for me. I just miss something more general when you don't 
know about payment (amenity=food?), but with shop=clothes + subtags it 
will be easy (just skip the subtags you're not sure about).
