The bulk update request #8946 is pending approval.

remove implication non-mammal_nipples (63026) -> nipples (1277273)
remove implication multi_nipple (15535) -> nipples (1277273)

Reason: We should also be able to use these tags for cases like

post #221575 post #4482802 post #3371711

where the nipples aren't actually visible but their presence is made obvious by the presence of either nipple_outline or areola. And in fact, many people already have; there are a bunch of posts that are auto-tagged incorrectly with "nipples" because of these implications.

I there a non-mammal_areola tag?

Non-mammal_nipple_outline?

If nipples are required to be visible for tagging, the incorrect tagging started with people adding non-mammal_nipples on posts where the nipples aren't visible, removing the implication doesn't change that

I would rather stretch the meaning of existing tags than create new ones just to cover the edge cases no one will ever bother to search for.

I mean... I'm not really sure why we have the "non-mammal breasts" and "non-mammal nipples" tags in the first place, honestly, except to acknowledge that it's a thing and that it's weird in some way. In which case, it's more about documenting cases of the phenomenon, which would include pictures where it's implied but not visible.
