Details on the superiority of TAGGING for DISTINCT data here: http://www.outlinersoftware.com/topics/reply/5264/19997

It’s just a superiority for dogmatic reasons: You’ll check out for combinations of criteria fulfilled by datasets, so the (single-only) assignments of clones to individual step-parents is of no use to the user and thus should be visible in the tree, just complicating the tree, but the “virtual parent” functionality should be hidden - which is exactly what a tagging system does.

Conceptually, “under the hook” it’s quite the same thing, but the “looks”, and the “psychological handling” is different.
