I think a lot of those are dangerous and could remove the meaning
intended by the original mapper, shop=fishing >> shop=fish. In my mind
one sells fishing rods and the other fresh fish to take home and cook.

Shop=lingerie is a type in itself, changing it to shop=clothes,
clothes=woman will loose intended meaning.
