> it could be seen as equivalent, personally I would see a case for different main tags because these are quite different features, better not intervene in an automatic way (although admittedly there is 1000 times less usage for laundromat one could also say that 40 laundromats are not worth discussing). Maybe set up a proposal for laundromat? For 25% of all laundries there is "self_service" information (and 85% of these are self service=yes which could suggest that the default is self_service=no). I'd rather go for amenity=laundromat (it has 7 uses now)

OK, I will not change this

Note that over 2900 self_service tags were added by StreetComplete
(checking distribution of this edits may give hint how many shop=laundry are laundromats)
