So you want to replace shop=bakery by bakery=yes, shop=butcher with butcher=yes, etc. ? This means that you cannot write a query that retrieves all shops in a town. You would need a list of things for which the value is "yes". But you cannot summarize the things, because there is no "category" to which they belong and the list is open-ended. Don't know whether that is a good idea. Sometimes the whole category is not what you want. E.g. when you want a map of restaurants, pubs, hotels (so called Horeca in Belgium, for which there is an organization), you don't need all amenities or tourism items. Or for roads you might not want crossings, traffic signs and other stuff under highway. Dropping the top level tag makes no difference in those cases. But sometimes you want all things in a category: e.g. buildings or shops . Dropping the category might not make some problems harder to solve than just keeping them. maybe I just misunderstood what you want to change. regards m.
