Only 2?  That's something of a bonus, I'd say :)

Seriously though, both mechanisms are in wide use for things that take 
up a bit more space than a building - there's certainly been discussion 
about pubs on the GB mailing list.  Both ways are "correct" (FSVO 
correct), so if you want to pick one to tell iD users to do, I guess you 
get to make the choice.  You should be able to get info about each 
mapping style from taginfo and overpass, but you'd want to exclude nodes 
and ways where there is nothing beyond the building from any calculations.

Best Regards,
