I support this. IMHO it stems from a misconception, someone wrote that commercial landuse is typically offices, and other people understood all offices must be commercial landuse.

A lot of people have an adversity to making up new tags and prefer using established tags even if the meaning is not fitting perfectly for the thing they map, but this is harmful because it devalues/blurs the meaning of the established tag.
