Puzzle Themes - What if a theme is present in a critical line but not the given solution?

Should I tag a puzzle with a theme that isn't in the given solution due to the automated solution given?

The principal example being this which I found quite interesting: https://lichess.org/training/2zuUi

The correct move of 31... Qd4 isn't hard to guess correctly, but properly evaluating this move as the solution rather than a simple guess hinges on the critical last-ditch defence 32. Rd1!? , with the only winning move being the quiet 32...e4! , with the humble pawn creating an unstoppable threat along the d-file.

So then, the initial theme of this puzzle is the dark-square weaknesses against the loose rook and exposed king. But the critical theme is actually the pressure along the d-file being vitally bolstered by the e-pawn.

I thought it was an interesting case of automated solutions not properly revealing the critical nuances of a given position. So then, could this puzzle be considered for the 'quiet move' tag? Or am I just tilted that I have a blind spot when it comes to pawn play? LOL
