Points. I have not touched any polygon rules yet, as far as I remember.

Sorry, I did not understand that this tweak could be controversial. I  
should have started a discussion first.

I visited a swimming hall whose POI was tagged as:
leisure=sports_centre
sport=swimming
Instead of editing those attributes, I thought that it would be more  
appropriate to tweak the mkgmap POI rules so that sport=* takes  
precedence. More often than not, there is a fitness studio at a  
swimming hall that can use the same shower and sauna facilities, and  
therefore the leisure=sports_centre is appropriate. Nevertheless, the  
main purpose of the hall is swimming.

Yes. Because none of the specific sport= rules match in default/points,  
the point will be translated as leisure=sports_centre.

Why would you find it incorrect? (On a related note, the Edge 705 menu  
text says "swimming pool" in Finnish while "swimming place" would be  
more appropriate.)
