Correct me if I am wrong, but ETF taxes do not "poof, go away." The ETF exchange versus sale of X/purchase of Y stock allows the capital gain to be deferred and reflected in the share value. The difference between your individual share cost basis and sale price will be your capital gain in a taxable account (avoidable within Roth IRA or step-up in basis). Or, are only a subset of ETFs operating this way?
