The important part of that past talk thread was the question as to changing the wiki grandstand definition to say that it must have a roof rather than usually has a roof.
Unfortunately both the Oxford Dictionary and Wikipedia say 'usually roofed'.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandstand
So what 'grandstands' have no roof???
And then how are they distinguished from 'bleachers'???

>> Building=grandstand is not perfect for me, beacuse building=* tag suggest that is some kind of typical building (with walls, roof, etc.) and most of the OSM styles render building=grandstand like every other buildings, where you can go inside, which may be confusing with grandstands areas. On the other hand we have leisure=bleachers , when the "bleachers" word is propably used only in USA.
