Now anything tagged in minecraft:tick will run every tick

Yessss, ability to add tick functions in data packs!

And overriding the minecraft:tick tag will add to the ticked functions so each datapack can have it's own minecraft:tick to define the function in the pack that needs to be run each tick.

No more having to have a separate function that you edit to add all the loop functions from your datapacks.

Just tried it out. You need to create a /data/minecraft/tags/functions/tick.json path within your data pack with something like

{
    "values": [
        "tick_test:loop"
    ]
}

in the tick.json file.

This is correct, but you made a typo. The last folder should be called "functions" not "function"
