Sort of. amenity=bar and amenity=pub did get split into a separate “match group” – which also includes amenity=restaurant. So although Young’s, the family-friendly ice cream parlor,[1] no longer gets upgraded to Young’s, the age-verifying pub, a Chinese restaurant can still get mistaken for something decidedly more beverage-focused. Absent changes to the editor’s own matching logic, NSI would need to split up the brands/amenity/restaurant file to distinguish by cuisine, which could get messy, since many chains specialize in multiple cuisines.
To state the obvious, the suggestion is an upgrade if it’s right and a downgrade if it’s wrong. If iD were totally sure it’s right, there’d be no reason to ask. So I guess the “looks like” is doing too much work here in the interest of brevity. Maybe what could help is for the explanatory text to give a good reason why you might choose the “Tag as not the same” option.
Fair point, though for NSI the consideration will be more nuanced: is it common for large chains of pubs to serve Indian or Chinese cuisine? If so, cuisine might not be a good enough differentiator.
I’ve heard good things about this dairy’s ice cream and corn maze. ↩︎
