Implication.

I'm leaving aside bcy username for now, because I can't figure out what website is that supposed to be. I assume it's a chinese platform? But I haven't been able to find anything online.

BCY was the chinese equivalent of pixiv, but it shut down a while ago.

I don't really view value in keeping separate ones either. In many cases you can't tell and just assume (eg @whatever is probably twitter, but not always).

As history has told us, making an umbrella tag like username will just result in people tagging username instead of site_username, so if you want them separate it doesn't seem like a great idea. You can already search *_username and there's only one false positive that I can see (invalid username, an artist tag).

Usernames may be different from the names artists sign works or use on their profiles.

I know they're technically different concepts, but just look through say twitter_username artist_name. There is a ton of overlap (the username matches the artist name, in which case one tag is redundant) or one tag is completely wrong (the artist name is not the twitter username, but it got tagged both anyway). Combine that with signature and we have three different tags to indicate "the artist has put their name on the work somehow". I'm not convinced that's super useful.
