I think there is a big difference between a 5 story tall net (held up by massive poles) and a fence. If it was a 5 story tall fence or wall, we'd call it a building or a dam or something.
These giant nets usually found near ballsports need their own tag - or maybe a new value of fence=net or something? But considering the tag value is in use, it might be better just to document it.
