Because I cannot categorize some hubs in multiple categories.
For example this article is half politics and economics:
http://hubpages.com/hub/Confessions_of_ … ic_Hit_Man
you could put those into a group called miscellaneous or other works by this author if people like your work then they will find more in the group.jimmy
Tags are perfect for that situation.
Think of groups as more a way to tie a series of tightly related hubs together; Robin's hubs on Grammar being a good example. (I hope that is the correct use of a semicolon )
Maybe I'm wrong but tags are global mixing all hubpages in the Universe whereas I would like to be able to list only all my own articles in Economics, or Science for example. If I could check an option to filter on my own hubpages when clicking a tag, that would do the stuff for me.

I have just discovered that the 'ad levels' option has been changed on HubPages in a way which really restricts flexibility for Hub page writers. Instead of having the options for 'high', 'medium', or 'low' level advertising, or 'no ads' at all, we are now just being given the options, 'ads'...
