Hi all,
Is there a good way to tag "hostile architecture"? To take a common
example: How should one map a bench that one cannot physically lie down on?
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostile_architecture
* https://hostiledesign.org/
* an example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camden_bench
I'd define this type of bench as: "The bench is about as long as an
average person's height, but is physically designed in a way that makes
it impossible, or very hard, for someone to lie down on it"
Suggestions? `sleepable=yes/no` (my current favourite) `can_lie=yes/no`?
`lie=yes/no`? ? `lieable=yes/no` `lyable=yes/no`? Or
`bench:architecture=hostile`?
There has been some discussion on reddit:
