create implication side_braid -> side_braids
Unless we want to merge them? In any case this seems like another one of those "we used to have X tag but people realized it wasn't broad enough so they created a broader one that now is needlessly separated from the first".
Another alternative would be to nuke it into twin_braids + side_braid, though I'm not a big fan of that.

I think trying to separate them would be worthwhile, so renaming isn't a bad idea. The division would be most clear if it was side_braids -> twin_side_braids and side_braid -> single_side_braid.
While there is also a single_braid tag, it's worth noting that while there is a good number of posts under side_braid also tagged single_braid (5.3k+), there is barely any side_braids also tagged single_braid (23 posts).

I want to point out that on the other hand, side_braids twin_braids is more than 1/3rd of all side_braids posts (800 out of 2.2k).
Anyway, I'll submit this too so that users can decide by voting on which version they prefer. This should be followed by a removal of the alias, otherwise nothing will be solved.
I prefer your proposal to use clearer names, but the issue with using "twin" is that I'm sure there's cases with at least three or more side braids (or there will be, it's not hard to imagine such a picture). On the other hand, "multiple side braids" sounds pretty ugly as a tag name.
I was thinking this over and now prefer that side_braids be aliased to side_braid, so that side_braid + twin_braids can be used instead, with respective use of side_braid + single_braid for appropriate cases.
