- dredmorbius 5y agoFrom a document perspective, yes, you're correct. From a tagest perspective, and the discovery affordances, there is a significant difference. Hierarchical tagsets allow you to navigate via tags, affording document discovery by that mechanism. That becomes more significant as you're working with a larger, richer, and more structured tagset.
- OJFord 5y agoSure, but GP's point (and it's something that annoyed me in Fastmail too) is that if you do have an 'hierarchical tag' - which could be in addition to unrelated tags - you don't get the '<sub-tag> is a <super-tag>' that you might expect. The tags themselves end up in an hierarchy without it affecting the tagged contents.
