Thanks for the response, Willie. Yes, I know that they are not exactly the same. But since you chose it for the synonym, at least it can be maybe considered at least close approximation. (I've noticed that you listed it under "A few slight mismatches" and I understand that there is some difference. Still, when I wanted compare ra.ring-and-algebras to some tag from math.SE, the abstract-algebra was the first one I thought of. And after looking at your answer I saw that you chose the same tag.)
When I started to help with tagging and retagging I thought: "Well, at least some things are simple here. Every question has to have a top-level tag. Sometimes I have difficulties to decide which top-level tag is suitable - but in such cases maybe if I look a bit through the guidance in the tag-info I still might be able to find the right one."

Well, it's not that I want top-level tag, it's that you (=MO folk) recommend to use top-level tag on each question.
Maybe I should clarify that I think that it is useful to have some "big" tag rather than question only tagged with some very specialized tags. (For example, rather than having only (filters) tag one probably should add also tag which show that it is from set theory or model theory or general topology, etc.)
Both kinds of tags are useful. If I am searching for a question, it might be helpful for me that it is tagged by some specific tag. (When I restrict search to questions tagged filters, I get less results and I find my question faster - assuming it has this tag.) Big tags are better as far as followers are concerned, for example. And they also help to "categorize" posts in some way.

specific-question I have noticed that there is a tag for ultrapowers, but no tag for ultraproducts when looking for tags suitable for this question: Ultraproduct of metric spaces.
specific-question Here is another question where ultraproducts would be suitable if such tag existed: A question on ultraproducts of $L_{p}(\mu)$-spaces

Let $I$ be a set, $\mathcal{U}$ be an ultrafilter on $I$ and $1\leq p<\infty$. Let $X_{i}=L_{p}(\mu_{i})(i\in I)$, where $\mu_{i}$ is a probability measure for each $i\in I$. Relying on standard results from Banach lattice theory, we can prove that the ultraproduct $(X_{i})_{\mathcal{U}}$ of $(X_...
