It would require less work, but in terms of design, it would be entirely 
wrong. All of these article tags (NPOV dispute, current, protected, the 
various stub categories) are supposed to be temporary, to be removed 
when the occasion that warranted the tag no longer applies. We should 
avoid having tags of this nature that are permanent fixtures on the 
article, and we should not allow the existing tags to become fixtures, 
as currently they often do.
