but it is the same shop type, right?
Note that https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop=e-cigarette is established
value - do you think it is bad/misleading/unclear enough that we should have both
shop = vape and shop = e-cigarette despite them being synonymous?

good point that it should not be repeated without checking again
but currently every single use was added in meaning shop=vacant
(single mapper)

very unlikely, trailing 2 or 3 after actual value is a common typo for some reason
as one of very low use values with extra trailing debris I just fixed it
in https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/803800872/history
and removed from bot list

removed from list, will ask mappers whether they meant
shop=herbalist or shop=spices (somewhere in year 2033 probably at 
current rate, so feel free to find who added it and ask them
before I will do this)
