how would we do this? What does it change? Btw., "lack of alternatives" really isn't a good argument in a project that allows "any tags you like".
still those tagged in the amenity namespace don't miraculously change meaning just because someone has introduced an alternative tag in the meantime.
I'm not saying they changed their meaning. Ofc amenity=emergency_phone is still the same as emergency=phone. But people put it into the amenity tag back then, because emergency= didn't exist.
The point is more that shop was mainly used for services, because it was the closest key that existed. I also cleaned up craft= a bit and many of those could also be found as shop= and while some certainly have a overlap others really don't.
