Would you tape over thumbtacks in a vapor barrier?

I have nothing that will pinch the plastic in the vertical direction more than the pins, since it will be a 45x45 installation layer horizontally on this. Would you tape over all the pins or leave it like this?

I had not taped.

Matter of taste. We have done it on some but definitely not all. Does not affect the density if that's what you're wondering.

Why have you done it if it doesn't affect the density? 🤔

Because I had tape left over and little to do...
