Back in the beginning, I asked the question ["Do we need a sci-fi tag?"](https://scifi.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/50/do-we-need-a-sci-fi-tag). We went for no, I purged [sci-fi](https://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/sci-fi "show questions tagged 'sci-fi'") from the existing questions, and we kept killing the thing whenever it reared its ugly head again.

Is it still a ugly head, now that we have fantasy?

Tony Meyer made a good point on a comment to that question about reconsidering this policy.

Should we resurrect these tags to differentiate the two big topics or should we keep them at bay?
