Does shopping centers count as Places?
From the Places wiki:
Area Places serve all the functions of Point Places while providing additional visual orientation cues on the user's client display. Because of their increased visibility and the resulting potential for map clutter, Area Places are easily overused. In principle, if a location is not distinctive and significant enough to orient drivers, it should not be marked with an Area Place.
In Arundel Mills there are some shopping centers that have area places that are locked at Rank 4.
To me, shopping centers as a whole body are clutter. Wouldn't we want to create places individual stores as points instead?
