Thanks for getting back to me about this. I wasn't sure about that detail.

You ask a great question. When I first started editing OSM data I asked someone I knew about that and they had a really nice explanation. Take for example a building with a courtyard in the centre of it. The outermost portion of the polygon would be marked as outer for the role, I like to call it a shell, while the polygon you would draw for the courtyard would be marked as inner for the role. 

In this particular set up for these edits, I think the best course of action is to mark each of these as an outer role since they don't interact with each other unlike how they do from the example I described earlier.

If you would like to do some light reading, this wiki helped me understand how outer and inner roles work.
