Open_hoodie > open_jacket

BUR #392 has been rejected.

mass update open_hoodie -> open_jacket
nuke open_hoodie

Hoodie with zipper is a jacket so open_hoodie would make sense to be open_jacket.

The main difference between the two is that a hoodie has a hood on top and it is ordinarily without a zipper. On the other hand, jackets may or may not have a hood. They have zippers or buttons at the front.

This should also change the tag from hoodie to hooded_jacket, then.

I know the difference between hoodie and jacket may be confusing.
They have similar traits, but they are not the same, let me try to break down the difference of these two apparel.

Jacket:
- Wear as an outerwear.
- Have a front opening (buttoned or zippers).
- May have hood.
- May have side pockets, chest pockets or sleeve pockets.
- Long sleeves.

Hoodie:
- Wear as either a top or outerwear.
- No front opening.
- Hooded.
- May have middle pockets, side pockets.
- Long sleeves

I hope this can help.

I understamd the difference, which is why I said this change should also replace the hoodie tag with hooded_jacket, as hoodies can't be opened by definition.

I don't think there is a need to change it, similarly a hooded_jacket can be open, so it should not replace hoodie. They are not the same apparel, if anything a hoodie is a sweatshirt with hood.
Like example: #81059, it is a hoodie, but you won't tag this as a hooded_jacket.

I'm solely trying to address the open_hoodie tag that because I am seeing lots of jackets there.

I really don't like making changes like this because it can be prone to mistags. I'd rather someone go through and change them manually where appropriate.

It has already been mistag too many times that's why I am bringing it up. I wanted to manually change it but I though it is more efficient for someone with the ability to mass update it and also remove the confusing tag.
How about I just manually edit the rest to the appropriate tag, and we just nuke open_hoodie?
Else no point I take the effort to make the changes and other still keep using a tag that doesn't make sense.
