I hope not so many are affected

How do we replicate the issue?

from my understanding, we do not have any way to tag "large scale" without
conflicting with the rest of the map, which is always small scale.
Ultimately you have to draw a precise line to create a polygon, and it will
interact with all the other polygons that are already there. Having a
landuse cutting halfway through a building or other polygon is not a
desirable situation (although it is done on purpose). From a German or
Italian perspective, permitted landuse is assigned to building plots (or
sometimes even parts of them), this is the common scale for the usage of
land. If you agree that the streets are a different landuse than the plots
along it, then the scale already gets down to block size even without
looking at individual plots.

For fractions of settlements, we should use the place structure, IMHO. The
predominant landuse is implicit if you draw the place entity (suburb,
quarter, neighbourhood) as a polygon (rather than as a node which would
leave a big questionmark regarding extent / boundaries) and actual landuses
within are tagged accordingly, but the scheme could also be extended by
having a mapper classify the type, e.g. quarter=industrial, or
place:type=industrial or something like this.

Expected behavior (i.e. solution)

the message should have been posted

Instead, only the second paragraph was posted, and I added the rest manually after discovering it was incomplete. The part that was posted without my intervention was this:
