This feature has been labeled as deprecated. The recommended replacement is: a more specific type of key:shop.
The reason is documented in Deprecated features. You are still free to continue to use or interpret this tag as you see fit since OpenStreetMap does not have “banned features”.
Under no circumstances should you (semi-)automatically change “deprecated” tags to something else in the database on a large scale without conforming to the automated edits code of conduct. Any such change will be reverted.

Hobby Stores
The tag has probably been used by English speakers to describe a type of shop which tends to take the name of a "hobby store" (even though the word "hobby" has a much wider meaning) and sells model airplanes, helicopters and cars. The shop may perhaps be more focused on remote control models, but they also sell static models for assembling and painting. Examples of this include the U.S brands https://www.hobbytown.com and https://www.hobbyking.com and the UK brand http://www.hobbystores.co.uk. Instead of using shop=hobby for this, use shop=model as it is more specific and clear.
