I don't mind the tumblr-esque tags, because they tell me upfront that the fic is very very unlikely to be one I want to read. (It must be a nightmare for the tag wranglers, though, and they have my sympathies.)
I'm pretty sure "Major Character Death" is an Ao3 warning and you can report them to abuse for not using it (unless they use "Choose Not To Warn", obvs). But, yeah, that tends to be the kind of thing I want to know about up front.
I realise some authors might be trying to make the best out of a bad situation and most historical works are given a pass (mostly for reasons of authors having not as much control over thei work as they do now), but it is so so so annoying. Lol, "not relevant to the story", LOL.
It is spectacularly gross when it's not acknowledged as fucked up. I haven't read 50SoG, so I can't comment.
