When I looked at the talk page, I found some old, unanswered comment
that I want to repeat here:

"How do you handle the situation when there are several architects with
the same name?"

"Relations are not Categories" uses the argument that you can query for
all objects that carry a tag. This isn't enough, however, if the
combined information from tags and coordinates doesn't qualify as an
unique identifier. The situation for architects, imo, resembles the
route relations (also in that there can be more than one architect),
thus there is a case for relations.
