I am one of the people who disagree about using the key amenity
Would shops, crafts and offices be better in amenity? I think not.
Where any set of features can be grouped together they should be, and
given there own key, such as education.
This helps mappers find similar things all under the one key.
If highways were placed under amenity so
amenity=motorway/secondary/primary/residential etc it would make mapping
harder not easier.

I agree since "amenity" is a good tag and there are many different
types of facilities available. In my view introducing an own key for
each possibility would be messy.
Leaving it how it is now seems the best. Future proposals should just
add a value to the "amenity" key

I think that our discussion about these tagging schemes is in
very slow progress. In my opinion, a proposal on a new tag
like amenity=educational_services
is more effective rather than shifting to educational=*
tagging schemes.
I agree. Note that there are many people with conflicting opinions
about how tagging
should work and how it should be changed.
For example I see no problem with many features using amenity key.
In some cases there are groups of people with completely opposing
opinions and it
is impossible to please both of them.
