Then it would be entrance=home/entrance=yes for me (defining function/importance).

To people disliking entrance=shop/garage: feel free to make a thread proposing
replacements and/or discussion whether this tagging is problematic and should be
avoided.

There are definitely some voices here claiming that this tagging scheme is problematic,
if you think that there is support for this position it can be relatively easily checked.
