These 2 tags seem to cover very similar situations, how are they differentiated? Should one be a subset of another?

create alias physical_examination -> medical_examination
as above. glancing over both tags there seems to be little to no difference in the kinds of situations portrayed.

Yeah, I don’t think there’s any difference.
Medical examination wiki:
When a doctor inspects a patient's vitals such as heartbeat and breathing, and does a physical examination of the patient's height, weight, injuries, and other stats to determine their health and well being.
It notably mentions "physical examination". And this tag has existed for longer, albeit as a rename of examination (forum #266084).
Though what’s interesting is that searching externally I’m finding more results for "physical examination". For example Wikipedia calls it like this, mentioning "medical examination" as a synonym.

based off that and wikipedia using physical examination as the canonical name, might be worth creating another bur that does the alias in reverse.
