error: the argument '--algorithm <ALGORITHM>' cannot be used with '--tag'

According to readme it is possible to use -a 256 with --tag:

Create for a file a hash Sha3-256 with output BSD style sha3sum -a 256 --tag <path to file>

But when I try:

sha3sum -a 256 -b --tag changelog.txt

I get the following error message:

error: the argument '--algorithm <ALGORITHM>' cannot be used with '--tag'

Usage: sha3sum --algorithm <ALGORITHM> --binary <FILES>...

For more information, try '--help'.

Version:

sha3sum --version
sha3sum 1.2.0
