Louise Hewitt and you had asked:

I conclude that you of your tags, over 70% were single words because
they're the tags you wanted and not because the tag entry UI hindered
the entry of phrases.
My sample of two supports my guesstimate that 80% of tags are
single word. Thus my earlier question: if [7]0% was the average
for single-word tags, would you really still argue for commas
as separators when people enter a series of tags on a web site?
I'm repeating myself. Nothing else to add. Enough already.
