I got a bit confused by this, as the manual explicitly shows the -T -
--no-recursion sequence:

https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_section/tar_54.html

But indeed, tar -tvf output/images/rootfs.tar | grep '/usr/$' had 2 hits
before, and not after applying this patch - So committed, thanks!
