[Tagging] Can OSM become a geospacial database?

[Sergio Manzi]

There is no way I can think of: for lack of better tagging some very different shop categories (/very different in our culture..//./), like the aforementioned "salumeria", "rosticeria", "polleria", the generic "alimentari", and many others, have all been tagged as "shop=deli", so we have "/lost part of our traditions/" for the sake of simplification and the urge of a methodical tagging schema which is rooted in a different culture.

It is sad, I guess..
