In addition, it seems that the swimming pool tags are used for two

Would it be useful and possible to resolve this ambiguity? We
currently have leisure=water_park, but it seems to more focussed on
recreational swimming with water slides etc. Does it make sense to use
leisure=water_park for indoor swimming pools that are focussed on
swimming lessons or speed swimming as well? If not, should we use
another tag for such facilities? Any other suggestions to resolve the
ambiguity?
There's also the question of sports centres, which may include a
swimming pool, along with facilities for other sports, ie sports hall,
gym/fitness centre, climbing wall etc.
If the swimming pool is in a separate part of the building, and has
its own name etc, then it makes sense to map it separately. But what
if it is mixed in with other facilities, and shares the same changing
rooms?
Or a swimming pool within a hotel, or a school?
the tag sport=swimming should be used to indicate what sports a 'sports
centre' supports. Or that a swimming_pool can be used for 'sports'.
The tag value swimming_pool does not indicatethat the sport swimming
takes place there .. it may only be a leisure activity rather then
competitive.
As only the swimming pool should be tagged with swimming_pool... not any
changing rooms, showers, toilets .. that may be present and shared with
other things. These should have their own tags.
