    $\begingroup$ I think we focus on the physics question, and not worry about the where too much. For example, we don't need a Physical Review tag. $\endgroup$

No, these tags describe the sources of the questions themselves, not the subject matter of the question. Hence, you would not be able to tag a question with any one of those, making them dependent on other tags on the question. These would then be meta tags, which are generically frowned upon.

In regards to the tag, see this prior post on the topic (and probably all the linked).
