YouTube could ban ad reads that aren't tagged, then Premium accounts could get no ads. I guess they're worried that tags would leak and allow 3rd party solutions (like SponsorBlock) to skip more easily.

YouTube could not give less of a shit about people skipping in-video ads, since they don't get paid for those anyway.
It's all about playing the incentive structure. When the party who can stop you from doing something is different from the party who wants to stop you from doing it, nobody will stop you from doing it.
