Yes, if an export backend wanted to show inherited tags at entries, the
same syntax could be used.  I don't know if any backend is trying to show
inherited tags.

In the Agenda this is necessary because entries are shown outside of their
normal hierarchy.  In an Org buffer, or in an exported version of it, the
original hierarchy is still in place.
