Let's we make them synonym [11].

  • Why not to delete
    This is a general point of view about the tags change/renaming:
    there is people that distinguishes among similar answers through the tags
    (Similar, not only inside a single stack exchange site).
    Moreover it's possible that I remember how to arrive to a question find in the past specifying that tag and some other words meanwhile I don't remember its title.
    When we delete a tag we go to damage that kind of memory and research.

  • Let's do them synonym[11]
    Said that, I agree that those two tags should be "synonymized".

  • What more
    We can choose one tag, leaving the other with an excerpt that says something similar to:
    "Deprecated tag synonym of the_other_tag, please use the_other_tag instead".

Let's we make them synonym [1].
