That's ironic, because that's exactly what you've done with tags. What I've said is unfortunate is that there's not more options for more people to perform common organizational tasks more quickly - i.e
not One True Way. I've never said tags are bad or shouldn't be used, and I even gave an example of how tags could continue to be used, but the UI enhanced to allow people to work faster and perform a common or possibly several common organizational tasks faster and more intuitively. I also by no means suggested that there's only one way to do it. My basis of my whole point is that more options for people is better.
That doesn't seem to be a welcome opinion when it comes to how to organize books in Calibre though. And again, you don't have to implement any feature that anyone suggests. Just don't imply that I'm asking for something to be done One True Way when in fact I'm advocating more options than the One True Way you seem to get so worked up over defending.
