The "set from Ignition/reset in PLC" pattern is problem for OPC subscriptions--the polling that occurs with random synchronization to the write operation. If you use `system.opc.write*()` to set the bit, and don't care about reading it, then the PLC reset paradigm is fine.

In other words, just don't use a tag.
