collection always scanned if "writeAllTags" value exists

I recently wondered why my collection is always rescanned at restart although "startupScan" is set to "false".
By trying I found out that if the parameter "writeAllTags" is set "startupScan" is ignored and the collection is always scanned.

Is that on purpose?
I think "writeAllTags" would also make sense if done manually and without a forced rescan at restart.

This is deliberate. In order to write all tags found within your files, it is necessary to rescan all your files. This is because the MinimServer cache doesn't contain tags from your files that aren't being used by MinimServer.

The writeAlltags operation would normally be performed infrequently. Do you need to do it frequently for some reason?
