I was thinking about the article's idea of having a lot of tags to organize all the little documents, and I think I see what they're missing. Often, the most important part of writing is providing a coherent structure and mental model for a complex, messy system. Tags are not a good way of doing that. If you only write small documents and then have a hodge-podge of tags to group them together, you seriously risk missing the forest for the trees. People need to understand how complex systems fit together, not just read short descriptions of all the engine parts.
