Just to chuck one example in - I've tagged lots of 
"leisure=nature_reserve" and almost no "boundary=protected_area; 
protect_class=XYZ".  The reason is simple - nature reserves where I'm 
likely to be mapping often have a sign saying "XYZ nature reserve".  
There isn't going to be a sign helping me work out what "protect_class" 
in OSM it is, so that doesn't get mapped.  It's also nothing to do with 
"what gets rendered"; I actually render my own maps and map quite a lot 
of stuff that isn't displayed there :)

Best Regards,
