Describe Your Issue

I saw the other bug post about broken tags, and your reasoning, but please fix them for 1.20.1. It really isn't that hard to have two git branches, one for 1.20.1 and one for 1.21+. All you need to do when you set that up is have one branch with the 1.20.1 tags(which don't get touched unless absolutely needed) and the other branch with the latest tags. Right now, because the tags contain items they shouldn't for 1.20.1, it breaks recipes that rely on them. That is unless you use something to brute force the loading of them, like Load My F***ing Tags, which isn't really a great solution. It just adds more overhead to packs, and can potentially lead to bugs as LMFT has to make some changes to how tags work in order to achieve this brute force solution, which may not play nicely with all mods.

All in all, it should be a simple fix that would take no longer than maybe an hour to implement, and would save many a headache for pack developers that want to use this mod on versions like 1.20.1, while waiting for various mods to finally update for 1.21+.

Steps to Reproduce

N/A

1.20.1 support has been dropped for many months now. As a workaround just use the LMFT mod.

I should note that one small mod isn't "overhead".

And yeah whilst it seems simple on paper to have a 1.20.1 branch, Forge is incessantly a pain in the backside to work with, I refuse to touch it anymore.
