The tag alias #64889 body_size_growth -> growing is pending approval.

Reason: I always felt body_size_growth sounds a bit clunky, and not a lot of people are going to think this when someone is going through the act of growing in size. Also coincides with shrinking in the size transformation subcategory so helps readability.

I feel like the big reason to move away from body_size_growth is that its definition is incongruent with the definitions of the growth tag family, which it is not a part of, despite the names.

but I'm not sure about using growing as the tagname, it remains _really_ similar to growth. it might still be better than what we currently have, though.

Like I said, the wiki for size transformation mentions shrinking being the opposite of body size growth. It just rolls off the tongue better.

Again, this has the same problem as the current tag.

I'm bumping this because I want to repeat my stance. It has not changed since last time. New taggers especially use growing all the time without even knowing they're supposed to use this frankly obtuse and awkward tag. Like these posts made just a few days ago, also tagged with growth

Even this pool was made with the growing and growth tags: pool #39598

The growth tag family isnt good, it should be replaed by "sprouting" or similar.

What about changing it to anatomy_growth? That far more accurately describes what the tag is about.
