in the case of a shop entrance it could be argued that it is also a type of entrance. Nobody did answer to my question from Sunday: “ is it the kind of entrance (door, etc.) that defines it? If someone lived in a shop structure which isn’t a shop but only an apartment (by use), and had a door to the street, would that be entrance=shop (because of entrance typology) or entrance=home (because it leads to a home)?”
