Interplay between keepWithTag and relative music

So I guess I don't understand the subject interplay.  Consider the following 
minimal example:

\version "2.18.0"

A = \relative g' {
  c c c c
  \tag #'up   { c' c c c }
  \tag #'down { c, c c c }
  c c c c
}

\score {
  \keepWithTag #'up \A
}

Based on the description on p477 of the 2.18.0 Notation manual (Untagged music 
and music tagged with name is included; music tagged with any other tag name is 
excluded.), I would expect the pdf output of the above snippet to be the same 
as that for:

\relative g' {
  c c c c
  c' c c c
  c c c c
}

But that's not what I get.  Instead it appears that the music tagged with 
"down" is actually included to the extent that the music in the 3rd measure is 
an octave lower than expected.  Note, too, that an entirely different result is 
obtained if the two \tag lines are interchanged.

I expect that all I need is a pointer to the appropriate documentation that 
explains this.
