This seems to have been silently/magically fixed in the last 7 months (Date of Nicos Karalis' comment).

Descriptions seem correct now. I had verified that they weren't correct when I upvoted this question on Apr 29 '14.

Side note: It's not documented, but apparently tag-based badges are not listed unless they have been awarded at least once.

Take a look at /2.2/badges?inname=python-3&site=stackoverflow:

//-- "link" and "badge_id" lines removed for clarity/space.

  "items": [
    {
      "badge_type": "tag_based",

    }
  ],
  "has_more": false,
}

Note that there are no silver or gold badges listed for either python-3.3 or python-3.4.
And these badges haven't been earned yet.
