you can't have a backlink without a link. you can't have a link without a page. so you can't have a backlink to a "page that doesn't exist" because without a page, there is no link.
the right way to say this is, "a tag is a special kind of page", which is far more boring (like.. didn't del.icio.us do this years ago?), but way more understandable.
In fact most of this article could be summed up as: most interfaces can be represented as a page of links.
