SHN Tool "3" Problem (ID[3]v2 tag) Matter?

So I'm about to archive a DVD full of shows, and wouldn't you know it the last show in the batch has the following shntool output:

I've had issues with shns before where I had to remove the ID tags in order for them to work properly but these flacs don't seem to be problematic.

I decoded the first 5 tracks to wav and it worked fine. Then I re-encoded those wavs to flac and the tag error no longer showed up when I checked them with shntool. And the fingerprints are still the same.

So my question now is if should I do this to all tracks to get rid of those tags or does it matter since the files still play and decode fine?

TIA

I miss the SBE University days.
