Holding_bullet vs holding_ammunition cleanup (tag proposal)

BUR #17061 has been rejected.

mass update favgroup:23452 -> holding_ammunition -holding_bullet -bullet
create implication holding_ammunition -> ammunition
create implication holding_ammunition -> holding

All of posts (more than 100) using this tag depict characters holding ammunition. While very few posts are depicting characters holding a bullet. Ammunition does consist of rifle cartridges, shotgun shells, tank shells, and 40mm grenades.
Before strongly disagreeing, bullets and ammunitions are not the same thing after all. We had better tag something by its actual name, not based on common misconceptions.
While I feel like using the tag bullet altogether with ammuniton (rifle or handgun one) seems redundant. Had better use bullet for separate ones.

In fact, only post #6093657, post #6119675 and post #6186272 (only the projectile is clearly visible) are actually depicting the act of holding bullet.
Update: Done with the cleanup and tag proposal request.

Please enlighten me - if post #6109726 and post #5903935 (both present in the favgroup) are not bullets, then what exactly are those? They look exactly like bullets to me.

I would like to explain again. An ammunition consists of a casing that holds primer, propellant (gunpowder), and the bullet (projectile). Hope this can be understandable.

• post #6109726 looks like a generic bottlenecked rifle cartridge. Something like the infamous 7.62*39mm or whatever
• post #5903935 depicts something that looks like a really long handgun cartridge, judging by its blunt bullet shape. Something like the .500 S&W Magnum. Or possibly the .45-70 rifle cartridge.

On the other hand, I learned much knowledge about tagging from other experienced users like you by time.

Thank you for your feedback. Correctness of describing a certain object still matter after all. Aliasing holding bullet might be a bad idea. We do have the catch-all tag ammunition. We have the tags ammunition pouch or ammunition belt to accurately describe what do these things contain.
Perhaps this is done in the similar reason why does this site use suppressor instead of silencer (that remained aliased for good).
While many average people know the object by its inaccurate name "silencer".
