+1, I also see it like this. If you want, group them into a site relation
afterwards. The argument: one osm object for one real life thing doesn't
work anyway. What is "one real life thing"? Why should the pub and the
hotel (restaurant / telephone / letter box / ...) be the same thing? If one
business has several shops, is that one or several "things"?
