In order from the least to the most important reasons:
1) For funsies
2) So I, personally, have a convenient way to quickly view them all at once while still being able to keep them organized in their different folders
and, finally,
3) Because if a character ISN'T tagged, people will inevitably message me asking if it was an oversight, usually w/ the undertone of them being interested in acquiring that character. This is especially irritating b/c, since those characters are so deeply personal that I could never imagine myself parting from them, a random stranger trying to convince me to get rid of one of them comes across as sounding HELLA rude on my end. Most people wouldn't come into the conversation w/ that kind of tone if they knew the characters in question were off-limits. So it's just easier for everyone if forever-homed characters like that are given their own tag. It prevents a lot of unnecessary confusion.

Hi! It's one of the trade tags defined in my "Trade/Sale" folder:
It's basically a mark of how willing I am to part w/ a character.

why adding the Dead Body one if you aren't parting away with them?
