Well, \relative is a music function that leaves behind absolute music.
So if you have
melody = \relative { ... \tag ... \tag ... }
then \melody contains only absolute music and
\removeWithTag #'xxx \melody
will work fine. If you do
\relative \removeWithTag ...
then things will go haywire as \relative will now be run on already
reduced music. So as long as you apply \relative before removing
tagged/untagged music, you should get consistent results.
