But this isn't a general OSM principle (where we also generally try to avoid different tags with the same meaning, but accept their creation if there are reasons). The principle in OSM tagging is "One feature, one OSM element", and it will always work out if you apply the "correct interpretation", because the real world doesn't have "features", they come into existence with us defining what a feature is. E.g. a School delimited by a fence could be seen as 2 features: a school and a fence, or it could be seen as one feature, a fenced off school. Cheers Martin
