 Semantically, I would expect something named
 {{{get_queried_object}}}''s''{{{()}}}, not {{{get_queried_object()}}}, to
 return an array of all tags queried: the queried object should be just
 that---the object queried.  If we were to change the behavior of
 {{{get_queried_object()}}} so that it sometimes returns not an object but
 an array of objects, we would break all the plugins and themes that expect
 an object.  And we would have to figure out what to do with its
 complementary method, {{{get_queried_object_id()}}}.

 A better approach might be to create a new method named
 {{{get_queried_objects()}}}.
