I think the combination of the Rationality and Practical tags gets pretty close to what you want, but to get all the way there you also would add the Motivations tag. Ie
I think the real reason we didn’t make Epistemic & Instrumental core tags was because when we tried tagging sample posts, too large a fraction of posts hit corner cases and failed to be well classified by the distinction.

Epistemic Rationality = Rationality & !Practical & !Motivations
Instrumental Rationality = Practical | Motivations
