[Tagging] It seems that opening_hours:covid19=* tag is a bad idea, right?

During the pandemic, opening times have varied a lot. At the moment,
opening time restrictions are being lifted, and when they will
be re-imposed, probably will be massively different again.

Not OSM-material.

There is much to say for a system to store such data and make it available
on a world-wide map, but I am 100% sure that OSM cannot keep up with
reality here. Such an application needs dynamic real time data and rules,
applied to countries and regions, and to categories of targets, with
varying time frames end exception lists. Not static tags on all the
affected objects.
