The lost file might not be recent and it might not even be untagged, it might just be tagged incorrectly (e.g. `vacation-2019` vs `vaccination2019`).

The nice thing with a hierarchical directory structure is that every file has a place, even if a file is misplaced or misnamed, there is a good chance it will be near where it needs to be.

With tagging you don't really have that, it's just a pile and you have to hope that you can remember a query to make the file show up again.

The biggest problem however is that I don't see how you can actually work within a tagged system. How do you extract a `.zip`? How do you copy a file? How do you deal with removable media (DVD, USB)? Finding a file and handing it over to an app is not the only way we deal with files.

Your local file system is a work environment, where you are the one creating and modifying files. Tagging seems to works best when it comes to exploring around other peoples content, but that kind of exploration is not something I do on my local machine with my own files, since I already know where I put them.
