Reason: body markings should implicate the markings related tag, just as it does with tail. Does anyone else think it would make sense to alias _body tags to _torso tags?

I think for example octopi have a body but no torso. As the body wiki says, a body typically includes a torso, but not always.

It is confusing that when something lacks a torso, it can be said that "it doesn't have a body". If we take this sense of the word into use, we should then just alias torso into body. I prefer the current definitions we have.
