As some might have seen, I started moving when you see it from tag to a pool. I actually forgot to post about it here and I'm really sorry about that.
About 2 weeks ago it was discussed whether to leave the tag as it is or make it a pool. Since it seems rather subjective, decision was to make it a pool.
I considered making a BUR to mass update it, but looking at how many posts are mistagged, I decided to do it manually.

What? Where? Don't just randomly move a 2000 post tag without discussion.
And I don't agree that it's subjective. "There's something hidden in the background" isn't subjective at all. It's there or it's not. See my previous post on abstract concepts versus subject concepts.
2 weeks ago? I found topic #6670 and that dates back to 10 years ago. Unless it's on the Discord server but I found little discussion there.
Can't find anything pertinent on the forums or on post comments (other than the aforementioned ancient topic #6670). I assume the "referred to discussion" must be on Discord.
Anyway, this kind of decision (moving a highly populated tag into a pool) shouldn't be undertaken unilaterally.

To me, it is subjective whether or not something is hidden, there are no defined limits where you can say something is "hidden" or just a background element between many others. Plus there are some posts (example : post #4571323), where the hidden element isn't in the background.
This doesn't change anything to the fact that the decision of moving everything to a pool should have been discussed more but still I can understand why someone found that it's better off as a pool.

This shouldn't be in this pool/tag to begin with. It's just see-through.

Also evazion already said what is to do in this case and what not. Doesn't need at least two more users to repeat the same thing.
