Not sure what this is used for.

Possibly duplicate with shop=doityourself, not sure though.

I use this for shops selling coloured paper, glue, knitting supplies etc.

I use shop=variety_store instead, but some mappers split the two categories.

Likely used for public-facing offices of energy suppliers, especially
in countries where there is a free energy market so people might
actually be 'shopping' for an energy provider.

Makes sense.

Lesser used alternative of shop=art.

Makes sense.

Lesser used alternative of shop=organic.

Similar to shop=craft.

Probably used for market halls. Might be a lesser used alternative of
amenity=marketplace.

Likely most of these should be shop=mobile_phone.

Lesser used alternative of office=estate_agent.

I would use office=estate_agent for this as well.

Lesser used alternative of shop=hairdresser.

Lesser used alternative of shop=shoemaker.

Makes sense, I guess.

Yes, shop=antiques is more popular.

Agree.

Agree.

No, shop=communication is used for places where you can go to and call
abroad cheaply. Mainly common in places with many immigrants.

Not sure.

> health - medical_supply?

Likely yes, or shop=organic (or shop=supermarket organic=yes)

> household - houseware?

Yes.

> interior_decoration - houseware?

No, I use houseware for shops were you can buy practical stuff such as
pots, bins, and brooms, while I use interior_decoration for shops

> office_supplies - stationery?

Likely yes (although people state that shops like Staples also sell
printers etc., and that that goes beyond what a stationery shop would
sell).

> printing - copyshop?

Agree.

> radiotechnics - electronics?
> sewing - maybe tailor?

No, in a sewing shop you can buy threads and needles, in a tailor you
can get your clothes fixed.

> shopping_centre - mall?

Agree.

> solarium - leisure=tanning_salon?

Agree - apparently solarium is not even an English word.

> souvenir - gift?

No, for example in Amsterdam shops where tourists buy things to take
home are very distinct from shops were people go to buy a present for
a friend they are visiting.

> tanning - leisure=tanning_salon?

Agree.

Agree, I feel neutral about this.

Thanks for working on this! Very useful to get more clarity in this direction.
