I guess that for every categorization, whether you use shop=x or, sell=x;y;z or sell:x=yes someone will come by and want to divide that category into two. So x will be split into x' and x'', both subcategories of x, until we end up with the categories containing exactly one product :-)
imho we should stay pragmatic and not to try to add too much detail. In the end the user will still have to consult the pricelist of the shop to see whether she wants the specific product for the price offered by the store and whether the product is available at the moment of the purchase. m On Wed, Jan 18, 2017 at 12:19 PM, joost schouppe <joost.schou...@gmail.com> wrote: >> There are general stores (shop= ) that sell fuel too ... > > Well, that goes for any product and any shop.
