Like you said, Q&A will sort it out in short order though.
We attempted to ask the question, but I'm not sure the response answers the question any better than the manual currently does.

It seems it is up to the team to determine if the employees doing the work are 'members' of the team, so in theory you could pay full cost for the machining but not include it in the CAW as long as you consider the workers members of the team.

I wonder how this works for companies that sponsor multiple teams; can employees be members of multiple teams?
