Topic tags maintain precision

Topic Tags match the question content.
By limiting the number of Topic Tag sand requiring at least one, we maintain precision on the question.

The origin of a topic tag
Users with a reputation score of 1500 or more are awarded the privilege of
creating topic tags. Once a topic tag is created, it’s available for the whole
community to use. You can see all the Topic Tags on Stack Overflow by
