I don't need to write my own proposal to point out that the tag you are
pushing is in contradiction to the general definition of the key. Actually,
this is one of the reasons why there is a proposal process at all: point
out problems.

In the whole world, there was one instance of this tag from 2014 to 2016,
when it raised to 6. Currently there are 15 instances of this, thanks to a
certain user "ti-lo" who unified the tagging of some more objects, removing
concurrent tags like "amenity=space_centre", amenity=spaceport,
aeroway=aerodrome, e.g.

I am not saying these edits were bad, but surely their performer didn't
follow the automated edits code of conduct.

Cheers,
