My own contrarian take is that QR codes are not actually
'tourism=information'. They are a (not very good) pointer to
information which is *not actually present* at the node.
If we do map them, suggestions:
have some way to denote if the information in the code is actually
present in a human-readable way, like a printed URL. I view QR codes
without the content also printed to be deficient.
Don't use tourism=information, because a QR code sticker on something
is not generally useful, and tourism=information is expected to be.
Some other kind of tag I don't really object to. My point is that our
tagging is hierarchical and there are implied semantics for the group.
A bare QR code doesn't fit the information semantics in a real sense,
even though it does in some nonuseful technical sense.
