That's why the section with tagging already contains

    Known issues and warnings

    Calling \relative on a music expression obtained by filtering music
    through \keepWithTag or \removeWithTag might cause the octave relations
    to change, as only the pitches actually remaining in the filtered
    expression will be considered. Applying \relative first, before
    \keepWithTag or \removeWithTag, avoids this danger as \relative then
    acts on all the pitches as-input.
