Tags [captcha] and [recaptcha] – married or single?

Question

UPDATE: The combination tag captcha and tag recaptcha is not in use at present.

Very similar in concept to Tags [gmail] and [email] – married or single? which does not so far have an Answer to serve as a guide.

recaptcha without captcha 3 Open Qs, 0 follower, Usage guide:

For questions specifically about the reCAPTCHA service by Google.

When should the above both be applied to a Q rather than one or the other?

If a question is about reCAPTCHA, it should simply be tagged with recaptcha. There's no need to tag with captcha as well.

captcha would seem to be a meta tag, as it has no context without other tags. It can probably be removed or, possibly, replaced with security.
