You don't need to tag, you also just specify the commit SHA, isn't that the same in jj? It's just convenience. The difference here seams to be that in jj you're always in a commit while in git you're always outside. But that's the difference between one and two commands. Tags are hardly a new concept, if anything they are easier then a rebase. You can't really expect to use something with knowing the core concepts. Thats true for every tool and also for software. Can you use jj without knowing what a commit is? I didn't knew about --detach before. It was obvious from the error and easily found using autocomplete. Also you only need it, if you want to change something under yourself while you're already modifying it.
