Do not attempt to even out hone wear, it's futile and serves no purpose other than cosmetic. (that is when your shaving edge is making good contact on the stones over its' entirety, that the heel and toe are sometimes lacking is normal, often needs a bit of honing gymnastics)
Would you need to reset the bevel? Well, not exactly. A popular method in the Coticule forum a while back was set a bevel etc., THEN add one layer of tape and FINISH on the one layer of tape. It works, and makes you feel purely the finisher at work in your edge.
Your touchups will indeed have to be done on tape until your taped secondary bevel becomes too thin and need a quick bevel reset without tape, etc.
There's nothing wrong with (reasonable) uneven wear, and you don't need to use tape by any means
Everybody has their method, some almost exclusively use tape, some don't.
I personally do not like honing with tape and use it only on razors with geometry issues where one or more layers of tape are necessary to create a good shaving bevel angle.
PS some of my best shavers are razors with big/wide bevels, so there's always that; I wouldn't worry too much about cosmetics when it's mostly about it being a functional item
