create implication digital_piano -> piano
Because although a digital piano and a keyboard may look similar, they aren't the same thing and are certainly not played the same way. Read their respective wiki pages for more info.
I can respect something like post #9043101 being tagged piano, but most of these look like keyboards.
And no, "Ackshyually, digital pianos have 88 keys instead of 61 or 76" isn't going to cut it.
as far as i know a digital piano's major draw is the weighted keys
the Yamaha PSR-E473 has the layout the wiki talks about but is not a digital piano because it doesn't have that kind of keys, so i don't think the wiki distinction is particularly accurate here (especially when it comes to depictions of specific real instruments)
We already have enough mess with people tagging piano on posts that are supposed to be keyboard_(instrument).

And the instrument you're mentioning has 61 keys...

They still aren't keyboards. By that logic I'm a keyboardist then.
Besides, the tag digital piano has existed for years, but thanks to folks like you keyboard (instrument) is used instead, wrongly.

Yes, it has 61 keys; however, there is zero chance someone who does not care that much is counting every single key on the instrument the anime girl is playing. (People mistag far more distinct instruments all the time.) They may care enough to look at the wikis and follow the heuristic, however.
Also, for a stronger counterexample, the P-121 is a 73 key instrument with a black key between the second and third white keys. This is also not 76, I think most (including its own advertising) would say it's a digital piano.
I'm also not sure if the average person could correctly categorize something like a YC61 with a YC88 by these wiki descriptions either.

Well then, "unless specified otherwise".

Oh, please. I used to be in band. If I can't tell them apart at a glance, what makes you think the average normie, who can't don't read wikis, will?
