That is correct, but you know that this is not allways true... I've had come
cases (not only in WF) that SAP should work in one way, SAP people agreed
with me that SAP should work like that and, even so, they told me that they
will not fix the problem and I had to create some workaround...
 
So, if you cannot sove the problem via the "correct" way, try your own
way...
