No, that's not true. Please see
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer ,
especially:

"the tags being used are accurate and not misleading" - that describes
to me the use of "admin:ref". If Richard was using, say,
"source:generator = B234", or "landuse = B234" that would be
"deliberately tag[ging] incorrectly for the renderer".

Cheers,
Andy
