There are instances where that will mis-resolve ambiguities. For example, if there are users "fly" and "fly guy," and I want to say something about the first one like "That [at]fly guy is really brilliant," this will tag the wrong one. That may not happen very often, but designing a system with known failure cases is not exactly a best practice.
