Comment (by bedas):

 I’ve never even considered a tag could be more than one word, but that
 probably stems from:
 - html (or else) tag is a one-word thing
 - (hash) tags on social media won’t work with spaces
 - “a” tag for me is a single thing - even if I’ve to tag a post as
 “computer programming” I’ll add a dash just because it feels more “tag-
 like”
 - for some reason (probably again due to above first two points) they are
 all lower case in my mind

 So I can’t but agree tags should be single worded lowercase search tags,
 not long tail SEO honeypots.
