Hm, I think writing this and posting it at 11:35 lead to me phrasing a few things quite unclearly (and several of those sentences don’t even make sense grammatically). Let me patch with some edits right now, maybe more tomorrow.
On the particular thing you mention, never mind the whole team, I myself am pretty unsure that the above is right. The thing I meant to write there was something like “If the above is right, then when we end up building a tagging system on LessWrong, the goal should be” etc. I’m not clear on whether the above is right. I just wanted to write the idea down clearly so it could be discussed and have counterarguments/counterevidence brought up.

That clarifies it and makes a lot of sense. Seems my objection rested upon a misunderstanding of your true intention. In short, no worries.
I look forwards to figuring this out together.
