At least the bigger ones of the "botte sifone" around here, are not tubes.
One close-by is made from pre-fabricated concrete caissons. Another one is
several hundred years old, and seams be made from stones and bricks.
We also have many pumping stations where "canals" end and their water is
pumped through pipeline-like tubes into another, typically bigger, canal.
So in that sense we have waterways in pipelines. There are many hundreds of
these around  here. Without them my city would be an island.
So if we review tagging, we need to look at the broader technical picture
and all the components involved.
