[Tagging] place=neighbourhood vs landuse=residential

[Evan Carroll]

There are two major tags that seem to be semantically the same,

name=foo; place=neighbourhood
name=foo; landuse=residential

What I don't want is this comment to remain (which is specific to the way
use case):
https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/84020/residential-or-neighbourhood

> More particularly, both can be used together without contradicting each
other.

My proposal would be to narrow the use case.

> If the borders can be sufficiently known use the following: name=foo;
landuse=residential. If the borders can not be sufficiently known to create
an area, use  a node with "name=foo; place=neighbourhood".
**place=neighbourhood** should never be used on an area.**

Any ideas on firming this up?
