ok, I gues we are having different experiences locally. Around here, I have
never seen a car dealer who has a dedicated space for cars they won't sell
:)
I have less experience with plant nurseries, but typically, any business
will sell you everything, as long as both parties can agree on a price ;-)

if we agree that shop=* should (ideally) only encompass public areas, then
it is completely fine. It would of course not automagically remove all the
private areas from the polygons tagged as shop, but it would be statement
how we think it _should_ be, and, if it was caught on by the mappers, would
lead in the long term to such a situation as defined desirable.

I do not understand what "everything" is referring to. Can you explain?
