Seems that when you don't use this workaround, Android has to resize the listview's layout several times until it's performed. That's why there's many users complaining about getView() being called more times than it "should".

Anyway, be conscious that getView() is not called secuentially, it's called in the order that Android determines, so don't expect to be tags shown in order.

And here comes the confirmation, page 48. Hope this helps!
