Oh, and in part, the reason why I suspect anchored might be a better
default is that it's more conservative.
For example, someone who mistakenly assumes that folder: is anchored by
default doesn't do any unexpected damage with something like this:
$ notmuch tag +deleted folder:misc
$ notmuch search tag:deleted ... | xargs rm
FWIW
