I haven't followed the said discussion, but I can see how some may see covered=* as an indication whether certain circumstances result in the said feature being protected from the elements. So I guess shelter=* should be used for telephone=* instead of covered, or a new telephone:construction=open/covered/booth/... should be introduced.
Also, I don't quite like the semantics of covered=booth at all, as covered=* is used in other meaning with other possible values with other POI.
