I only clicked on a few of your examples and had to figure out which
areas you meant. But they were outside of urban areas. I used the
combination barrier=hedge; area=yes for micro mapping areas of hedges
in urban areas, e.g. near parking lots.
As Paul Allen pointed out earlier none of your alternatives (forest,
scrub) are a good match for those.
I accept that not a lot of people are mapping such objects yet. But,
as Joseph points out in another mail, there is a need to be able to
map all kinds of green areas inside build-up areas such areas of
hedges, flowerbeds, grass areas, and areas with a combination of them
and trees.
And I want to end with a quote from {1]
"My approach to this matter has been – from the beginning of my
contributions to OSM-Carto – to regard the role and task of the
project as mapper support without active steering."
My feeling is that in this case that principle has been broken (I am
not going to repeat the arguments given here by the others in this
thread)
