Hi all,
I find the twisted semantics of entrance=exit and entrance=emergency[1]
quite off-putting.
If it is explicitly not an entrance, why should it be tagged under
entrance=*?
I think exit=yes and exit=emergency make much more sense semantically.
For reference these are the current object counts according to taginfo:
entrance=exit (8,826 total)
exit=yes (21,033 total)
entrance=emergency (15,063 total)
exit=emergency (437 total)
What do you think about this? Personally I'd welcome a proposal to
encourage the more semantically sound tagging with exit=*.
Cheers,
Martin
