surprisingly well documented. Because slitter manufacturers are selling to
mom-and-pop outfits.
I think the tape is supplied unpunched and the tape punch makes both feed
holes and data holes. I could be wrong.

It's an industry comparable
with printing (and often combined, for when till rolls with custom
printing
is desired). So it may be that although paper
tape is no longer available
from computer stationary suppliers, it can very easily be made in quite
small MOQs.
How does one, using modern equipment, both slit and perforate (feed
holes) blank tape? Color me curious.
