Is someone that searches firefly_(honkai:_star_rail) wanting to see a mech suit in their search and should they be forced to use firefly_(honkai:_star_rail) -sam_(honkai:_star_rail) to not have to?

I am assuming you meant to say "doesn't want to see a mech suit in their search", and my response to that would be that they already have to do this because a lot of Firefly art also includes Sam, but it is true that if you are only interested in posts that include Firefly outside of her suit specifically (regardless of whether Sam is there or not) that this technically wouldn't be covered by her tag anymore, and that is worth considering even if the effect will be pretty small (~120/5.7k posts).

And granted Danbooru usually doesn't create implications for the animal form of a particular VTuber to their original persona (such as Subaru Duck -> Oozora Subaru), and I imagine it's for similar reasons as you mentioned.

My personal opinion is that Sam shouldn't imply Firefly. Sam only accounts for a 10th of Firefly posts, though, so it's more a preference and not a strong opinion. I'm not sure how we would reconcile the gender tagging, though.

Yeah, I also don't feel strongly about it. I just think that creating the implication would be the simplest solution for consistency and resolving the gender tagging problem.
