Empty taxonomy term is no more generated since 0.18

[kakawait]

Since hugo 0.18 (bug still on 0.18.1) with following setup (to reproduce)

mkdir blog
cd blog/
hugo new site .
hugo new post/welcome.md
cd themes/
# Random theme
git clone https://github.com/dim0627/hugo_theme_robust.git 
cd ..
echo -e "[taxonomies]\n  tag = \"tags\"" >> config.toml
./hugo_0.18_darwin_amd64 -w server --theme=hugo_theme_robust --buildDrafts

Then open http://localhost:1313/tags/ give me 404

Whereas using

./hugo_0.17_darwin_amd64 -w server --theme=hugo_theme_robust --buildDrafts

I get following result

As you can imagine the big difference is that on public folder using 0.18 there is no more public/tags/index.html unlike when generating using 0.17.

I know that from 0.18 everything is now a Page it's maybe related, but empty taxonomy term should be possible.

I hit this issue today as well. Starting making my test from HTML Proofer fail due to the 404s.

Any contributors can claim it's a bug in order to allow theme developers to know if they are doing wrong or just wait for fix (or propose PR)?
