It's a map of Spotify, not an encyclopedia of music. I believe it's intended to give you a taste of something you've never heard of.

Then I'll back up to the fact that it should actually play the correct music for the tag.

The way this concept would really work, in practice, at a streaming service is as the basis for some kind of cluster analysis that could predict what you might want based on your listening behavior and that of others "like you".

Having people use words to precisely pin-down entire genre's is perhaps near the end of it's usefulness.
