Under clause 1.2, if the points started as Membership Reward points, were transferred to Hilton and then used to redeem at Hilton, does that count?

To me it’s not clear cut as you didn’t pay with MR as per 1.2 II
And Hilton points have no surcharges (at least most redemptions) so is 1.2 III eligible
Not saying they won’t honour but curious if anyone has asked Amex.
