the point was: draw an area where it is. If it has holes, put them. A
building in the park doesn't cut a hole in the park, because it is
usually considered to be a building in the park. A building on the
lawn (landcover=grass, even if this tag is not ufficial, it's just an
example) will need a hole cut, because the building is not grass. This
is independent of the rendering.

Imagine someone would want to calculate all grass area (and everything
would be mapped).
