"These are not the text tags you're looking for," totally what I thought when I learned that the development team did not make this to be "text tags" really. It's just another way to make them searchable with special kewords you can make up in that text field but not add more custom fields. When someone tells you this is how it works, they are not trying to make a point of their own. MLO was just not designed to allow you to add multiple custom fields. Sure, I wish it was.
I realized more than 13 years ago that this software does not come from our language or culture. Wording gets lost in translation. The way they decide how things should work is not my way. It can be surprising how culture can change popular thinking, but I accept that's probably why things like this seem so non-intuitive in my experience. Guess we gotta design our own if we want it a different way.
