Is there any controversy about that? Or are those trivial facts getting in not because of stub tags but just because lots of people love to pad?
I don't think stub tags have anything to do with it - anecdotally, whilst I've seen many people writing into OTRS asking how they can get "notices" removed from articles once they've been worked on, they only ever talk about things like {{unsourced}} or {{wikify}} and I've never seen stub tags mentioned.
People just like to add trivia, I think.
