I asked a similar question on Meta Stackoverflow few months ago. (I discussed before doing so with the OP of this question i.e jokerdino). My first created tag was listed in the crappy tag list, may be a consequence :( .

I strongly agree with the reason given in the question. We should increase the reputation points required to create new tags. 300 rep is very low. Here is my reasons:

1. Unlike StackOverflow.com and other SE sites, AskUbuntu site is really for beginners. We are providing supports for new, unexperienced users. These users are sometimes (well most of the time) so much unexperienced that, some can't even formulate a question.

Just an example, I saw an off-topic question asked on the StackOverflow (belongs to meta site) and within 2 minutes it got -5 votes[!] without any comments. After 5 minutes it removed. So the content expected on StackOverflow is of good quality, but unfortunately we can't expect that level of quality in the questions here.

So, we should not give tag creation privilege to users with 300 rep. Most users can't even understand the system with such small time (required to gain 300 rep).

2. Re-tagging may be considered a solution, but why should we depend on that? It's a tedious work.

If 1500 seems to be quite large, I suggest to increase it to at least 800 rep. Preferably 1000 rep.
