[Tagging] Proposal to change key:man_made to key:human_made

[Peter Elderson]

Or, let's acknowledge that many distinctions are pointless because an awful lot of primary keys just mean "thing", so the key does not really matter, only the value counts. Who cares what the *  in *=bus_stop says, it's a bus stop.

I agree that "artificial" would not be beneficial in this context, but rather a renaming with the same issues (or even worse, think of things like "man_made=works", wouldn't it be horrible to have "artificial=works"?)
