I've noted myself and other users have also seemed to note that stories can no longer be tagged with the "7" tag. Did I miss a memo somewhere?

See meta.stackexchange.com/questions/287883/… – mpdonadio♦ Dec 7 '16 at 18:48
I tried editing a question with that tag, and I got an error about that tag not being allowed. I will check what happened, but it seems the software running Stack Exchange doesn't allow that tag in the questions. I have a vague idea of why this happens; I just need to verify it.
As per Are tags with a name made of just numbers still allowed? this has been now fixed. If they change the code, and introduce back this behavior, they will also make a post on the main meta site to explain why they introduced back this limitation.

T'was working as recently as 3 hours ago: drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/222383/… – Clive♦ Dec 7 '16 at 17:35

Yes, I noticed. I asked a question on the main site to understand if they don't want us to use number-only tags (since not even 66 is allowed), or it is just a bug they need to fix. 7 is not black-listed, so it's not an issue only on DA. – kiamlaluno♦ Dec 7 '16 at 17:41

Actually no it doesn't, so yeah this is definitely related to numeric tag names – Clive♦ Dec 7 '16 at 17:55

Sorry about this; this was my bad. It was impacting an API. I verified that we didn't have pure numeric tags on some number of sites, but I obviously failed and didn't thoroughly check all of them, which is my error. I will find another approach for the problem that I was trying to fix. The code has already been reverted. Again, sorry.

Not to hijack your answer, but does this mean you "test in production", or rather that you "don't have a representative test environment"??? Btw, are there any such site as X.stackexchange.com, whereas X = unittest, integrationtest, volumetest, useracceptancetest, etc? – Pierre.Vriens Feb 21 '17 at 20:02

@Pierre.Vriens no, it simply means that we can't anticipate and test for every single scenario. We do indeed have a representative test environment, but I'm not telling you the url :) – Marc Gravell♦ Feb 21 '17 at 21:14
