Q: Finder Tag | remove from all files/folders, but keep them at the top level

I'd like to be able to click on a Finder Tag in the side bar of a finder window to view only the top level of files and folders (i.e., I don't want to see any of the subfolders that have same Finder Tag). This is because I like to use list view in Finder windows and my top level folders extend beyond the Finder window.

 

Do you know if I can either get Finder to only show the top level. Or is there a clever way to find all the subfiles/folders that are tagged and untag them?

 

I thought that there may be a Smart Folder solution (e.g., find by path) but I don't see a solution there.

 

Thank you!
