I think if you're making an argument for CSR then you should make it for every other style tag.
I don't think so, it's objectively clear when someone is copying Riyo's style, just as one example. It doesn't need to be admitted by anyone. Whether or not the same applies to CSR, I don't know, but there's no reason to make this about other (style) tags.
Those all very clearly look like cutesexyrobutts-inspired posts. I don't see the issue with the tag.
One of them was even caught tracing by CSR himself and deleted his stuff afterwards (cutesexyrobutts_(style) bad_id).

That’s 2 different artists.
CSR called out Shexyo, not Araneesama.
And those works are still found on Araaneesama’s other sites (e.g. HF).
Additionally, CSR called out tracing, NOT style.
If you trace a work, you pretty much copy the style of the original work.
Also, if Araneesama is another one copying the style of CSR and even zefrableu did it once post #4125396, I don't see what's bad about the tag in general.
Imagine people want to search for works that copy the style of CSR, how would they do that without such a tag? We have such style tags for exactly this reason and the amount of images under those tags isn't that low. So, whats your argument against exactly this one?
I populated most of this tag so I may be biased, but I don't think it's any different from things like Ishikei (style) or Ilya Kuvshinov (style). There are certain artists who are commonly imitated and CSR is one of them.
