You missed the important point I made, which was the bit about these
types of tags being incosequential in the entire scheme of things,
documenting them is more important than any vote when it won't have
any great effect on anything else.

Besides some people already advocate tagging should be based on usage
as a defacto standard, rather than a vote which only a fraction of a
tiny minority bother to have anything to do with, 15 out of 200,000+
users doesn't really say much, or even 15 out of 10,000+ active
users...
