The canon divergence tag is for AUs where an important event that happens in canon, usually in the middle of canon and which shapes important plot points in canon from that point forward, didn't happen or happened differently. If you honestly don't know the difference between that and something like "these two characters who were never a couple in canon become a couple in between normal canon events," I don't know what to tell you. But you really sound like you know you're being deliberately obtuse and you're just trying stir up wank.

I do actually understand why people use it, and I don't really care that strongly about it, because it's just a tag. But I really do think that it's sort of silly and useless. "Some specific event happens differently or doesn't happen" could apply to such a vast range of events, and the actual tag tells you basically nothing about what's actually going on in the fic itself.

It doesn’t need to tell you exactly what happens, it categorizes the fic and tells the reader that this fic will be contradicting and actively changing canon events, which not all fics do.
