Otherwise every physical tag would be natural=* (if beaver damns are natural because beavers are natural, then all man_made=* is natural because man is natural) and every functional tag would be amenity=*. There has, in the past, been a tendency to treat amenity=* as misc=* and some of us are trying to limit such usage. There is also a feeling that"amenity" is more suitable for places offering leisure activities and for actual amenities (such as post boxes) rather than schools. Very few people decide to go on holiday to a school, or feel a need to visit a school to do something. Schools, like offices, are places most of us would prefer not to be and only go there because we're compelled or paid to do so. -- Paul
