It seems that the tag mandelbrot-set briefly existed (on one question) in 2015: math.stackexchange.com/posts/1093525/revisions
Posts where the tag mandelbrot-set was added removed (including the editors): data.stackexchange.com/math/query/1105163/… data.stackexchange.com/math/query/1038474/…
SEDE did not return any deleted questions with mandelbrot-set: data.stackexchange.com/math/query/883845/…

Proposal: Create tag xor xor, also known as symmetric difference, is a logical operator for which we have no separate name in English -- for example, when we say "do you want ice cream, or do you want cake", we mean xor but we say or. Since for many people, this is the first new logical operator...
Based on voting on the linked post, it seems that the prevalent opinion is that the tag should not exist.
Or should we retag manually at least the questions without boolean-algebra tag and a moderator can then retag the remaining 11 questions without bumping - by merging it into boolean-algebra?
Or would we create a new post on meta discussing whether logical-operators (or logical-connectives) would be a suitable tag? (Such tag was suggested in Asaf's comment.)
I don't think this is a particularly useful tag. Searching for XOR will lead you to the questions about XOR. So it has no particular value in helping search and classify questions about XOR. It also sets a precedent for tags for other logical operators (which in that case, should just be the one tag logical-operators or some variant thereof). — Asaf Karagila ♦ Sep 27 at 12:33
Would a separate tag for logical operators/connective be sufficiently different from propositional-calculus to be actually useful?
If such tag is created, then xor can be either synonymized or merged into the tag (without causing any bumping). The question is whether we should have such tag at all.
You can find queries with some stats on this tag here in chat: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/3740/2020/9/27
This is the only question where the tag was added by somebody else then the tag creator: Simple and fast homomorphic checksum - XOR MD5?
This question has the tag among its initial tags: What's the best notation for “a set XOR a single element” for a journal?
I thought it might be reasonable to ask you - since you have mentioned logical-operators as a possible alternative in the discussion on meta.
