sleepable=yes/no is for me problematic as it can be easily confused with "is it OK to sleep there".

`bench:architecture=hostile` has multiple problems - it is unclear (what it means? that it was built during Russian occupation?), subjective and it shows clear opinion in social topic.

It is preferable to use tags that are as objective as possible.

It's important to realize that the term 'hostile' has a certain meaning in the realm of architecture, and need not necessarily be seen as judgmental. (Gothic architecture, for instance, was originally a slur implying primitive barbaric style.) That said, if the situation can be described using simple factual terminology that would be better, since interpreting it wouldn't require any extra knowledge.

I agree with your objection to 'sleepable=yes' -- it implies permission, like an access tag. So we might consider 'sitting=only' or 'sitting_only=yes'.
