I didn't say tags didn't provide any protection; I said they didn't provide any protection in themselves. And then I went on to explain - at what the time I thought might be excessive detail , but obviously it wasn't- that they might provide protection in combination with other factors and circumstances, which I set out. To evaluate how useful tags will be in affording protection, we need to look at all the other factors and ask ourselves how often, and in what circumstances, they will line up in a way that will make the use of tags effective (and cost-effective).
