https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:historic%3Dwayside_shrine

"This tag is also used to mark shrines created in modern times (not just

So .. as nothing else is offered they all go here... thus the key 
'historic' is undone.

If mappers had some other choice then who knows.. they could then use it.
