Use case

As communities tend to grow especially back when only rooms were a thing I highly suggest a feature where the owners or staff have the ability to change said room into a sub space for better organization.

Additional context

I found an issue that maybe similar to mine and if so i'll gladly let it be marked as a duplicate

Rooms cannot be made into spaces, that property is immutable in the way the spec defined it.

I'm sure that's technically impossible, but this could be implemented by creating a new space, add the existing room, possibly rename and upgrade it ("visible to space members"), invite everyone in the room to the space. Question is, is it worth creating a simple workflow in the app for this rare case, or should users (admins) just do it by hand (it's only a couple steps!)?

I'm going to close this issue as per above points, but I think element-hq/element-meta#338 and #20296 is probably of interest to you as it would make sharing spaces with other people easier.
