I can give you a case that is more complicated.  The University of
Edinburgh.  As well as a main
campus, and a subsidiary mini-campus,  it has individual buildings
scattered all around the city.
It could be mapped as a multipolygon but it would be a lot of work.
Imagine using a multipolygon
natural=wood to handle many individual, widely-spaced trees by poking lots
ofi rregular, large holes
in it where trees aren't.

See https://www.ed.ac.uk/maps/maps  And note that what you get there is the
first of five tabs
covering different agglomerations of buildings.

I think the only feasible way of handling this would be a site relation.
Maybe you can think of a better
way of handling it.
