If you import a gedcom into your Legacy file, you may not want the tags that were used by the person who created the gedcom. In that case you would clear them. In fact, that person's tags might conflict with your own. I tagged my direct-line ancestors with Tag 1 so I could easily pick them out of the Name List. If someone sent part of their file to me and they'd tagged all ancestors who were illegitimate with Tag 1, then their tags would mix with mine and defeat my purpose. So, I would clear them.
I've never done this, but that's my understanding of it. I'm sure someone who knows more will correct me if I'm wrong.
