T tapping is not completely prohibited in class A systems, but there are specifics that must be adhered to in doing it, i.e. X number in a given spur off of the loop.
Think about the real reason that a Class A is better and treated different.
In a class B if the device or devices quit communicating a trouble signal occur es but the detection could be completely lost if the circuit had been cut in the middle (or anywhere really)
In a class A a trouble will occur but the possibility that the detection has been lost is greatly reduced being that both ends of the circuit are communicating.
