It's not all that clear to me. Are you proposing the tag
aeroway=heliport to be used in the specific case of a helipad that is
part of a regular airport instead of using aeroway=helipad?
If so, do you recommend we continue using the helipad tagging in the
case of a separate facility for helicopters only?
According to Wikipedia definition:
"A heliport is a small airport suitable only for use by helicopters.
Heliports typically contain one or more helipads and may have limited
facilities such as fuel, lighting, a windsock, or even hangars. In
larger towns and cities, customs facilities may be available at a
heliport."
[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliport ]
Helipad is just a landing place (for example some hospitals have them
alone), heliport is more than this, so they are not the same. Look at
this heliport:

It's tiny and have only one helipad, but the infrastructure contains
some terminals and the apron.
