Do Wwise's music transition rules treat a segment's Exit Cue as a legal 'Next Grid' exit point, per any retrievable source?

The only retrievable source is a user feature request (Wwise 2021.1.6), not documentation. It reports that 'Exit source at Next Grid' does not treat a segment's Exit Cue as an exit point even when the cue falls on a grid line, so transitions can be delayed to the next grid point; users work around it with custom cues on the grid and Next Cue exits. The vendor reply only thanks the poster, so the behaviour is neither confirmed nor denied, and later versions are unknown.
