Problem: there are 3+ tags for areas of mostly grass with sometimes
overlapping meaning, in 2 different keys (landuse=meadow,
natural=grassland, landuse=grass)

Solution(?): 4+ tags for areas of grass with overlapping meaning, in 3
different keys

I don’t see how this will be an improvement.

Even if you succeed in replacing over 5 million uses of landuse=grass with
landcover=grass there will still be areas of landuse=meadow and
natural=grassland which are not precisely defined, not to mention other
areas with grass surface such as leisure=pitch and
leisure=recreation_ground, landuse=village_green, landuse=greenfield, etc
