Hi Hans In OSM we have this principle of one feature - one element http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element In my world a gas station and a convenience store are two distinct features, so they should indeed exist as two elements also in the osm database. Also an address should be considered a feature in its own right so it should also be a distinct element.
