Swimsuit tag?

This is just a random question, but i'm curious.

I noticed that there are 3 separate tags about swimsuits: 'swimsuit', 'one-piece swimsuit' and '2-piece swimsuit'...my question is...is there a reason for having the 'swimsuit' tag, if there are already those other two, more specific tags?

I always assumed 'swimsuit' refers to just a one piece, but looking through the tag, there are both one piece and two piece swimsuits tagged under there, so doesn't it make it moot?

swimsuit is a generic parent tag that also refers to bikinis and rash guards, it doesn’t describe a specific style.

I see, thanks.

As a parent tag, swimsuit lets people search for posts containing any kind of swimsuit. Otherwise, someone that's looking for swimsuit posts but doesn't care what kind of swimsuit would need to do separate searches for each type of swimsuit.
