building:use is for the current use of the building, building is for the type of building (architecture). In some circumstancese these are the same, but they don't have to be. Maybe an example can make this more clear: a building built as a church will remain a church building, also when desacrated (building=church, eventually further subtagged), and you can also operate a church in a residential or an office building (or open air etc.). Or a hotel, there are different types of dedicated hotel buildings (e.g. atrium-hotel has a big atrium in the center and loggias around it to got to the room) but there are also small hotels operated in residential buildings (and in this case building would not be "hotel"). The building:use tag would mostly be duplicates of the amenities, shops etc. inside the building, wouldn't it? There is also landuse, so I am not sure if you really need this (might be suitable for residential buildings, the rest will either be covered by amenity/shop/craft/office/etc. or we are missing a tag) cheers, Martin
