1) "Basic" warnings are not "standardized" in fandom. You're required to warn for certain things on AO3 (or indicate that you've chosen not to warn and your work may or may not contain these things) but that doesn't mean that everyone agrees that authors must warn for these things or they're terrible horrible people who deserve to be yelled at. There may be very loud people in fandom who argue that authors who don't warn deserve to be yelled at, but that doesn't make their views the standard.

2) Choosing not to warn is not meant to function as a general warning. It's meant for authors who don't feel like putting warning labels on their fic, for whatever reason.

You seem to contradict yourself here. By basic warnings, I mean (and clarified that I meant) warnings for noncon, underage, character death. And yeah, those warnings absolutely are considered standard and necessary. If your fic requires one and you don't use one, you can default to "chose not to warn" but that's about it. If you don't warn at all, people will jump on you. I've never bothered to jump on an author for disregarding their warning tags before, but from everything I've seen, their error will be pointed out to them by multiple people.

Choosing not to warn is not meant to function as a general warning.

This is such an odd perspective to me. For one, because it totally contradicts everything I saw people saying about the tag back when AO3 was fist getting its legs under it. But also, because this concept of what the tag is for just doesn't make any sense. If you don't feel like using tags and you don't have anything you need to tag for, then...whyyy are you tagging in the first place? You don't feel like tags and you don't need to tag, yet you are...using a tag to demonstrate your desire to not tag?

The "chose not to warn" tag only makes functional sense if it is being used as a stand in for tags the author doesn't want to divulge. Otherwise it's literally redundant.

Do you think that fandom begins and ends with AO3?

If you don't feel like using tags and you don't have anything you need to tag for, then...whyyy are you tagging in the first place? You don't feel like tags and you don't need to tag, yet you are...using a tag to demonstrate your desire to not tag?

By this logic, people who don't want to use tags shouldn't use AO3 ever, because even fics that are completely family friendly need the No Archive Warnings Apply tag.
