Team's Response

There is no purpose having this restriction to prevent duplicates for tags since it does not affect the functionalities of the application. Tags were meant provide extra information and it does so even with duplicates it still serves its purpose. There is no need to make it unique like the project names for project therefore we reject this issue.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: Imagine having 10 tags but 7 of them are duplicates. It will surely ruin the user experience. Tags are to show additional info about the projects but having repetitive tags sort of defeats the purpose as user will barely be able to read through the tags as most of them are duplicates and might miss out new and more relevant tags. This is just unpleasant for users to experience.
