I agree with not using landuse=grass when tagging grassy land cover.
landcover=grass should be perfect for this.

Unfortunately, landuse=grass is rendered in the default OSM map layer while
landcover=grass isn't. So to encourage proper tagging, we should make sure
that landcover=grass is being rendered. Taginfo says that no project uses
landcover=grass:
