Topic: Possible ambiguity in the use of yuki_(evov1)

EVOV1 has a running thing of calling all their characters Yuki, and e621 has tags for each one, whether they're a Charizard (yukizard_(evov1)) or a Lovander (yukivander_(evov1)) or a snake (snuki_(evov1)). However, there's also "human Yuki", who currently doesn't have a tag; the only way to reliably find just that character is to start with yuki_(evov1) and then methodically subtract out every other Yuki tag until you're left with just human Yuki. Obviously this is error-prone, and I found two images not tagged yugia_(evov1) in the process of trying this out.

I feel like yuki_(evov1) should be removed from any image which has another *_(evov1) tag and used exclusively for human Yuki. (While you're doing that, you can also merge zebra_zuki_(evov1) into zuki_(evov1) unless there's some reason for them to exist separately which I don't know about.)

Is there any scenario where people would tag or search something like yukivander_(evov1) -lovander? If not, these should just be the same tag outright.

The main problem as far as I can tell is that they are distinct characters, not a single character called Yuki in multiple guises. (This is implicit in the flavour text for post #5343437, for example.)

I am really not buying it even a little. This seems like a distinction without a difference, and if every depiction of "zuki" just happens to be a zebra, if every depiction of "yukizard" just happens to be a charizard, and every "yukivander" just happens to be a lovander, and every "snuki" just happens to be a snake, and every "yugia" just happens to be a lugia? Tag yuki_(evov1) square_crossover on the affected posts and call it a day.
