Since the node is not automatically tagged with the term it's related to, I do not see why the vocabulary would need to be applied to the content type associated via Taxonomy Node to that vocabulary.

In my case I have 4 vocabularies I am using Taxonomy Node on, (all the same content type)
but I do not want these nodes to be tagged with any terms from those 4 vocabularies.

I can simply not tag them, but for user ease of use it would be nice to not include them on the node edit page.

Agreed. This 'feature' makes no sense. Why would I want to tag nodes with terms that represent the same nodes' node type???

For example:

- I create a Vocabulary called 'Colors' - Free Tag type
- I create a Node Type called 'Color'
- I create a Node Type called 'Car'
- Using Taxonomy node settings, I set 'Colors' Vocabulary to associate with Node Type 'Color'
- I want to apply terms from 'Colors' Vocabulary to nodes of type 'Car'
- When I save Vocabulary settings, the list says that 'Colors' applies to both 'Car' and the Node Type 'Color'
- Indeed, when I go to create a new 'Color' node, there's a Free Tag form for 'Colors' ... BUT I DON'T WANT THAT --> the ONLY node form that the 'Colors' field should appear on is the 'Car' node form.
- I try unsetting the 'Color' node in 'Colors' settings ... But it keeps coming back.

Unless someone has good reason for this, I would consider this a bug. There is no need for the Vocabulary settings to do this, for the rest of the module to work. Why would I want to apply a 'Colors' term, to a 'Color' node??? That makes no sense. They are synced versions of each other, not meant to applied to one another.

I guess the proper thing would be to use form_alter to hide the 'Colors' form field from the 'Color' node form.

But I also intend to look at the code and perhaps patch it, unless of course this setting business is required for the module to work properly. form_alter will hide it from my users.
