You miss the point, namely that a 'tag' is just a convention between people. Nowhere it says that a tag should be set in concrete to last unaltered for eternity. Every versioning software available provides a means to set a 'tag', and leaves it up to the users how to interpret 'tag'. I for one would never use software that makes a tag irrevocable: Errare humanum est...
