you can keep calm, what you have been observing regarding boundary relation 
definitions in the wiki sounds like the result of wiki fiddling and revert, and 
what overpass API considers an area (or not) has no influence on our database 
and the data contained therein. Still what you describe doesn't seem to be the 
generic definition for an area (I guess not even for Overpass API) but rather 
sounds like the implementation for a specific use case. There is some fuzzyness 
regarding areas in osm, agreed, but things are really more complicated as many 
tags play an important role.

cheers,
Martin
