Reproduction steps

pnpm publish package-1.0.1.tgz --access public --no-git-checks --tag exp --ignore-scripts 

Describe the Bug

The output of the above command states the wrong tag name:

npm notice Publishing to https://registry.npmjs.org/ with tag latest and public access
                                                              ^^^^^^

Expected Behavior

When I run the same command with npm instead of pnpm it states the right tag name:

npm notice Publishing to https://registry.npmjs.org/ with tag exp and public access
                                                              ^^^
