It doesn't take very long to see that this isn't the case.

tagged-entry and main-view:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/blob/master/meson.build#L98-105

gd-two-lines-renderer as a cut'n'paste:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/-/tree/master/cut-n-paste/libgd

tagged-entry, main-view and icon-view:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/totem/-/blob/master/meson.build#L147-155

tagged-entry, main-box and icon-view:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-photos/-/blob/master/meson.build#L143-152

main-view, notification, and tagged-entry:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-books/-/blob/master/meson.build#L84-96
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-documents/-/blob/master/meson.build#L90-102

(gnome-music doesn't use libgd anymore, the version in Debian still
does)

The only 2 modules that just use the tagged-entry:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/-/blob/master/meson.build#L32-38
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/recipes/-/blob/master/meson.build#L13-17
