Your <tagEncoder> pattern should append "%nopex" [1] to suppress the stack
trace.

logback silently includes %xThrowable in your pattern at the end to display
the stack trace when logging a throwable [2]. This probably does not make
sense for the log tag, which is meant to be short. I've created an issue
for this [3] and will fix it for the next release.
