Buddypress creating duplicate tags taxonomy

I’m using Views by Toolset, which reveals all existing taxonomies in WP. I’ve noticed when BP is active, there is an additional Tags taxonomy.
I’ve tried disabling all plugins and switching to another theme.

Anyone know why BP creates these duplicate taxonomies?

Are you sure it’s BuddyPress and not bbPress?

I’ll try turning that one on and off to see what happens. But I know it happens when I turn on and off BP.

Went back and realized on this particular site I don’t have BBPress installed, so no, it isn’t that. BP seems to create it.

Is there no documentation of BP creating it’s own taxonomy and also not listing it in the admin panels?

BP does create a member_type taxonomy in bp-core/bp-core-taxonomy.php:
```
register_taxonomy( 'bp_member_type', 'user', array(
   'public' => false,
);
```
Maybe that’s what you’re seeing.

Would that register as a tag though?
