Wow, is it not rude to question the intent behind asking for a technical clarification? There is no gotcha here. It's simply asking OP to rule out this very obvious gap that their statement leaves unaddressed. Being helpful != being accurate.

The OP has pretty much said that X-Check tags are not intended to automatically take action on reports.

That is a pretty different thing from saying the people applying the tags don't expect action to be taken, but there could be entire organizations of 1000s of people where those tags serve a different purpose.

Please read the link above for context on how terrible Facebooks data control practices are, wherein this very act could be routinely occurring and OP or anyone making decisive statements would be irresponsible in doing so.
