I did not restore all of them, because I continue to not see the value of retaining them. You saying "is highly relevant to us" is a statement, but not an explanation of why tags beyond those in the original submissions need retaining. Without me seeing the need / value, I'm afraid I see only two ways forward: Either things are acceptable as they are now (and will be for future similar imports), or it needs to be someone else to put time into spotting and then pulling in such changes.
