I am not sure why landcover=clearing is described as better

If someone wants to leave gixme, the fixme key or OSM note is
the best solution.
Best solution for what?
For marking clearing to be mapped. Obviously, mapping it properly
would be better. But fixme/notes at least in theory can be processed
by other mappers,
in case of clearings - also by armchair mappers.
But then the feature is harder to find in the data base.
Note that clearings have already been marked as landuse=clearing.
I have no idea why encouraging landcover=clearing would be preferable.
In preference to landuse=clearing.

and stop land covers becoming regarded as a legitimate use
of the key landuse.
too late for that, see landuse=forest
So landuse=sand
landuse=dirt
landuse=rock
landuse=scrub
landuse=valley
landuse=peak
landuse=cliff
landuse=tunnel
will all be fine to use?
I don't think so.
No, because there are already tags for tagging that.
Despite that people are using landuse=sand, landuse=scrub... and it is
probably because of the use of landuse=forest and landuse=grass that
suggests this misuse.
And there are no tags for clearing.. so they use landuse=clearing.
And round the circle we go again.
