I don't see in what sense is this better - your own remark 'someone
lives in the garden?' applies here as well, and it's even worse, because
imho residential=garden suggest that this part of residential land is
garden, but garden=residential suggests that this garden is for
residential purposes.

And the added bonus of abusing leisure=garden tag... Let me one more
time explain what I think is wrong on this tag, so here is an example:

Step one: Take a look at this area:
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=50.008617,15.799091&spn=0.000565,0.001706&z=20

Step two: Which one of these lines better describes the area?
A) Place where flowers and other plants are grown in a decorative and
structured manner or for scientific purposes.
B) Open, green area for recreation.

Step three: Take a look where did I get those descriptions:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dgarden
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dpark


Seems like recently the page about leisure=garden was significantly
changed by copying a text from wikipedia, which makes an impression that
almost any recreation ground can be called garden. Looking at the
original wikipedia page, it lacks any clear definition of a garden.
Second remark I have - is really definiton of OSM tag leisure=garden
equivalent to the explanation from wikipedia?
