While it's more flexible, tagging tag pages would lack one feature of using a tagParent. With a tagParent, the parent tag might be included on any page that includes the child tag. For example, if "Different Object" were the parent of "Stalemated player loses", then "Different Object" would automatically be added to any page with the "Stalemated player loses" tag. This might be desirable, though it could also lead to too many tags on a page. As a tag on the tag page, "Different Object" would appear as a tag in its tags section, and people could follow it to find tag pages for different types of object.
