you can still use man_made=tower if unknown, "multiple" will not really
happen, or mappers will decide which is the significant class.

yes, just that "tower" is very generic and there are many things that all
are some kind of towers, but do not have to be in the same main tag in OSM
(and often aren't). You see a road? That's not enough for mapping in OSM,
you also have to say which kind of road. Same with towers.


You see how it's used ? you add a tag for its usage.



+1, usage is a completely different thing and I completely agree with
François. man_made=lighthouse, amenity=restaurant.

Cheers,
Martin
