Because your Tumblr ISN'T your own journal. For good or ill, the communication architecture is totally different than for sites like LJ or DW.

When you post something to a tag, you aren't just sharing something with your friends who you've invited to your metaphorical living room, you're doing the equivalent broadcasting it directly over the airwaves into thousands of other people's living rooms as well, and depending on what you're sending them, some of them may get cranky at having to listen to your irrelevant or inflammatory posts.

Tagging your posts about your fandom-named pet "my birds" or "puppylock" or "loki the lord of hairballs" or something along similar lines would give you the same organizational functionality as tagging them by their name, and would save both you and the people tracking the fannish tags a lot of frustration. All it takes is a few more keystrokes the first time around; the site remembers your tags and will autocomplete them, so on any subsequent post it should take the exact same amount of time.
