Are you suggesting that when a landuse is inside another landuse, we just don't use a multipolygon relation and don't care if the big is overlapping the small ? But we are not modelling the reality in this case. If someone or some software requests only a certain type of landuse, it will get a full polygone without any hole which is not correct. By doing this, you force all softwares to ask for all data and make complex calculations just to find what has to be excluded. I'm usually not a supporter of 'tagging for the software' but here, we have to represent the real world as they are. For the example of residential and cemetery, the residential area is 'arround' the cemetery and not 'the cemetery is on top of the residential area'.
