Sven gave us a list of tags which have exact meaning. So no
distinctions. No differences, just another names.
e.g. `phone` is the same like `contact:phone`. You could just find one
difference: The name. And to have just the names different is a bad
thing. In such cases we can make life a lot easier by just using one
tag AND NOT two tags for the same purpose!
Unfortunately there will always be rebels and errors.
Making the wiki only have one tag for it is fine, that should reduce the
number of preprocessing replacements but not eliminate it for quite some
time.
