Personally, I had a period wishing I could name those Pick color labels. Looking through older albums their use/meaning is different from one period to the next, depending on zeitgeist of the moment. But progressively I got more comfortable using structured tags and star ratings, and now use a combination of those for selections across albums, while using color labels to distinguish images inside particular albums. But to each their own, right?
