Is it okay to add a few new tags? Like, for example, statistics (topic is mostly, R-related, but not exclusive to it) — at Initial Version

Description

Now we got math tag, however I do not think it makes a good sense to use it for everything remotely related. I would even add more specific tags like bayesian and economics, for example. Say, while both general equilibrium or demand models are still math (and science, FWIW), someone looking for actual math (ex., numerical computations or abstract algebra) may not want to see those, while someone looking for econometrics stuff would prefer not to dig through ports like R-cgal-Meshes or standalone functions for fancy distributions. Using finance is also problematic, there are tons of economics stuff which has nothing to do with finance. Etc. Obviously, tags only make sense when there are some number of ports worth having those.

What everyone thinks? While right now I ask in connection with 3000+ R packages we got now, it is not restricted to R.
