I can understand that viewpoint.  I'm not sure that there is any technical
merit, in terms of db
queries, to it, other than making life easier for somebody who wants to
find all types of sporting
activity in a given area.  Where it does cause problems is for people using
the query tool (or
equivalent in things like maps.me) being confused by tennis pitches,
shooting pitches, and
the like.  It's far from the only tagging infelicity we have, and we'll
never be able to fix it because
of existing usage, but I see no reason to extend the confusion.
