I object to [stl]
Current the tag [stl](https://software.codidact.com/categories/38/tags/3925) is marked as a sub-tag of c++, implying a meaning of "standard-template-library". However I see at least both of the questions currently using the tag mean [the 3D object description format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_(file_format)).

As I see it both meanings are relevant to Software Development and there are very different. So the tag need disambiguation.
