I also think so - when we have two similar landuses, we should use the
one which is more specific:

1. "Commercial" landuse has been defined more general, as if it was
"offices" mainly, but also including sale:

"Commercial landuse mainly deals with services and trade (tertiary
sector <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tertiary_sector_of_the_economy>).
Such area may consists of offices, administration, laboratories,
warehouses (logistics park), car repair stations and their associated
infrastructure (car parks, service roads, lawns and so-on)."

2. Unfortunately retail is similar, but mainly about sale:

"Predominantly shops and their associated infrastructure (car parks,
service roads, lawns and so-on)."
