I think that, at least, it's not a bug. I don't /think/ it has never been
specified like that. But I still don't have a clear view of what is done, in
which order:

- processing macros
- inhibiting "noexport" subtrees
- evaluating code blocks (possibly with noweb calls)
- etc.

In fact, what you expect is that putting a tag ":noexport:" on a subtree would
propagate the option ":eval no-export"[1] to all code blocks beneath it. That's
the one which inhibits code block evaluation during export (but allow
interactive evaluation).

I really don't have any strong opinion about this, even if, without further
thinking, I'd favor the same behavior as the one you expected.

Best regards,
