I think there is some confusion. JOSM uploads nodes first and then ways. That's just because you cannot create a way between two nodes that have not yet been created. But that automatically means that if you upload in multiple chunks and something goes wrong after nodes have been uploaded, it can occur that the nodes will be created but the ways not. And since most nodes that belong to ways have no tags, you end up with a bunch of untagged nodes. I don't think anyone tries to suggest that JOSM first uploads an empty node and then uploads it again with the tags associated with it.
