I also very much dislike the fact that 'Flight of the Heron' has been synned to 'The Jacobite Trilogy', especially since AO3 already has a mechanism that could have been used in this case. 'The Jacobite Trilogy' could be a metatag, with 'Flight of the Heron', 'Gleam in the North' and 'The Dark Mile' as subtags. Then everybody could tag with and filter on any of those four tags, as they prefer. I guess there must be some good reason the AO3 tag wranglers prefer not to use that option, but I can't guess what it is :D
And there are practical consequences: 'Flight of the Heron' doesn't appear in the autocomplete dropdown anymore, and it won't appear in the list of nominated Yuletide fandoms that people may browse through to find fandoms to offer that they have a passing familiarity with.
