I don't think it's a good idea to adapt your tagging practices to suit
systems that can't be bothered to handle ways/relations! Please, if
you think a feature is geographically better represented as a way, do
it as a way.

I prefer to map the physical extent of a shop when possible, since
shops very often occupy a non-trivial physical area (especially large
ones, e.g. supermarkets).

So to answer the original question: no those wiki edits would seem to
be misguided, and for more reasons than just one-feature-one-element.

Just my 2p of course

Best wishes
Dan
