That's not the point. Puppet doesn't know your usecase. In general, exported 
resources are used to distribute data from one set of hosts to another one. 
Most prominent example being SSH host keys, which are usually exported by all 
your hosts and then imported by all others.

So it is generally possible that an exported file resource is being


  1.  exported by multiple hosts
  2.  used by multiple (other) hosts

Thus, Puppet needs to take some precautions to avoid possible conflicts. That 
being said, I don't think that "file" resources are a good fit for exporting at 
all.

HTH...

Well...I'm not a dev maybe it's way I don't understand if I export to
two differents host/tags those files are on two differents hosts. How can
they be in conflict ? 

For example, if I have «something» let's say a service/daemon running on 

  «master-host»

and for each 

  «slave-host»

I need to put a config file who depend on a token distributed by the
master. For me the most «natural» method would be to exported the «token»
to each slave host from the master.

I don't see how can that be conflict.
