Does Ethernet Backhaul work in AP mode?

I was surprised to learn today that if I use the regular Orbi (RBR850/RBS850's) in AP mode, Ethernet backhaul is non functional.  Is it the same for the Orbi Pro?  Since Orbi Pro starts in AP mode, this seems like a rediculous restriction to have to be in router mode for Ethernet backhaul to work.
