This is the exact question I came here for and, of course, no-one has bothered to answer it.... in the last TEN YEARS! Nice job, Fender.

Fender don't comment on this site or at least haven't for a good many years. It is just a relatively small bunch of enthusiasts.

in answer to your question, I don't know. If you assume it isn't how would you damage your neck if it is?

No need to know this information to adjust truss rod.
You look to be a beginner in truss rod adjustment.
Best is to study how to, before you work on truss rod nut

The adjustment is always done in the same way regardless of the kind of truss rod.

My experiences;
I adjust lots of truss rod any kind
I replace two truss rod over years.
No need to say I can fix anything on guitar.

It will always be the same way of proceeding;
Loosen the nut for more curvature.
Tighten the nut for less curvature.

Whilst that is true the biflex corrects both convex and concave issues by using an anchor at the 7th the vintage does not
