I'm not sure what you mean by "difference between features and tags for releases". The idea of namespacing maintenance branches with "released/" was to make it more visible that these are branches which have been released. I.e. a release happened close before/after the branch was created. Compare this to a model where "master" is the development branch, "stable-x" are staging branches after a feature-freeze date, then a release happens and a maintenance branch gets created. Having said that, keeping "stable-x" branches and tags as they are now and allowing feature branches of the form "features/component/my-cool-feature" is fine as well.
