Hmmm I wasn't going to tape. This is for a hillclimb bike so not a lot of side loading, and almost entirely on smooth pavement. There are a couple of dirt sections on some of the BUMPS climbs maybe? I forget.

Oh yeah, for road use no need to tape. Tape is actually bad for that use case (increases rolling resistance). Road level pressure also helps hold the tire on the rim much better than for cx.
