Your derived back-end calls `org-latex-export-as-latex', which in turn,
calls `latex' back-end. IOW, you are using functions that ignore your
back-end.

You need to write an export function that will use your back-end.
Another option is to use EXT-PLIST argument from existing functions.

BTW, `split' behaviour implies that value is a list. So select-tags
should be ("B_noteNH").
