I find shop=trade too generic to be useful, as there are many different trades besides the building-construction trades.

builder

Not sure what this is used for.

I have mapped some craft=builder. Small offices, maybe with some storage for
tools and construction materials. shop=* seems wrong.

building_materials

Possibly duplicate with shop=doityourself, not sure though.

shop=trade

craft

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

sounds like shop=stationery or shop=fabric

hobby

Similar to shop=craft.

Do you know what hobby this is about? Almost everything can be a hobby.

antique - no wiki, mentioned on antiques page so maybe deprecate and propose
antiques?

Yes, shop=antiques is more popular.

They obviously mean the same. Deprecating the rare one will do no harm.

car_service - maybe car_repair?

Agree.

Some companies focus on car service, but all of them can do some repair as
well, so this is certainly a candidate for a subtag of shop=car_repair. But
not service=* as suggested on the shop=car_repair page. There is something
going wrong. service=* is already a subtag of highway=service and
railway=service.

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.

The shop=gift tag definition explicitely covers "tourist gifts (souvenirs)".

What present do you buy for a friend? Jewelry? That's shop=jewelry.
Confectionery? That's shop=confectionery. Flowers? shop=florist.
