I have a similar problem with the tagging of "Zone 30" and other such
restrictions.

I understand that having the tag on every road makes it easier for
consumers. I think that when a restriction is conceptually an area, it
should be marked as an area because we should be making use of
the fact that we have a geospatial database.
A relationship feels a little like having the disadvantages of both
approaches - you need to keep track of all road segments, but it is
worse for consumers.

I'd like to disagree on the "Zone 30" being an actual area: Here the
appropriate administration does usually not set a full area (with all
houses, parks etc.) as restricted but rather the individual connected
streets, which means that in my mind a relation would be the approach
that resembles the nature of these restrictions the most. But as you
already noticed: the relation does not really make things easier, so I
would rather stick to tagging the individual roads.

The problem with short-term parking zones is that the conditions are
much more complicated than in 30 km/h zones… For example from x pm
to y am parking is free for everyone. From y am to x pm it's only free for residents (they get a special sticker for their car), everyone else has to
pay a fee of z euros and they are only allowed to park for max. 2 hours.

Now tag nearly every street in a district with this information – and when
you're done the city decides to change the rules for it's short-term
parking zones…

That's why I'd like to use implicit values or relations. I don't want to use
areas because, as you say, "the appropriate administration does usually
not set a full area (with all houses, parks etc.) as restricted but rather the individual connected streets" – and the rules don't apply to all streets in
these areas.

Cheers,
Stefan.
