Tags are primarily intended for use in filtering what you see in the Navigation panel. If you want to find all "Human" creatures, for example, you would go to the magnifying glass over the Navigation pane. There, you would click on the blue "tag" icon, and select the "Human" tag. Now, your list of items in the left-hand pane is limited to those with the "Human" tag (or their containers, if you have the hierarchical display turned on).

The benefit of tags giving a controlled list is incidental.. that's not what they're for.

Going forward, though, with the option to auto-assign tags based on recognizing the text, I expect the use of tag-based snippets to decline.
