A question about meta tags: Should we use interesting-tags for questions about favorite tags? Or will we simply use favorites for this purpose?

I see that Asaf Karagila removed both occurrences of the tag interesting-tag on meta: https://meta.mathoverflow.net/posts/3615/revisions and https://meta.mathoverflow.net/posts/2798/revisions

I planned to ask Federico Poloni what was the intention when he created the tag in this question: Tag warnings on MO. But this is now moot.

It seems that the tag hasn't been used in other questions: http://data.stackexchange.com/meta.mathoverflow/query/787716/posts-which-had-given-tag-in-the-past?tagname=interesting-tags

The tag interesting-tags is one of the default tags which are automatically imported to a local meta when a new site is created. (And cannot be removed, even if they are not used in any questions.) However, as you can see on this site it is a synonym of (favorite tags). (Which probably was not t...
A synonym interesting-tags $\to$ favorite-tags might be reasonable. This would be similar to the situation on Meta Stack Exchange. Of course, this would also mean creating the latter tag.
Probably also a synonym interesting-tags $\to$ favorites would make sense - and the later would be used both for questions about favorite questions and favorite tags.
I will wait a bit to see whether I get some feedback on this here in chat. (Or maybe somebody might comment on meta where I have just posted a question tagged interesting-tags.)
