I recommend you ask on the Q&A
On the other hand, I see this as outside the intent of the rule. The rule is intended to be very specific. Only fans that are part of a KoP or FIRST Choice or sold specifically for an allowed motor controller are allowed, with the exception that a fan included on a COTS laptop (or other COTS computing device) does not render the COTS computing device illegal.
