This is expected and documented behavior.  From 
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nscell/1532348-tag?language=objc

Setting the value of this property raises with NSInternalInconsistencyException 
<https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsinternalinconsistencyexception?language=objc>.
 Subclasses are expected to override this property if they support tags

If you want to use tags, you should subclass NSImageCell and implement -tag & 
-setTag: to return your own ivar.  Hope that helps.
