Call this a little extreme, but I think the uncanny valley tag should either be replaced with the tag “uncanny” or be removed altogether. I have been looking through many posts with the tag even though none of them fall into it. The uncanny valley, by definition is a specifically humanoid figure or object that so closely resembles a real human face/figure but not quite, making it uncanny to the eye. But due to the way humans evolved, the uncanny valley can not apply to anything non-human. This also means that a human face that is clearly a drawing can be uncanny, but still does not fall into the uncanny valley because we are aware that it is a drawing/2D, (not a threat) The uncanny valley would usually apply to a real human face that look slightly off, a doll with a very realistic face or a 3D model. A not very well known fact about the uncanny valley is that it’s extremely hard to actually draw something that falls into it. My proposal is that the tag be removed, replaced with “uncanny” or before you use it, you are prompted with an exact description of what it actually means.
