Question on TX Mixing and Effect in Auton and Asisted Modes

I have a question on using TX mixing, for example when used to compensate for pitch change on deployment of flaps.

When setting up a plane in manual mode, I found that flaps have an effect on pitch (quite normal) so I dialed in some up elevator to compensate. However, what happens if I deploy the flaps in an assisted mode such as FBWA or Stabilize? Would this not cause the plane to nose up more than necessary, because the flight controller is will already compensate for pitch change caused by the flaps when the sticks are in neutral position?

I could go and test this, but thought I would ask here first.

Thanks,
Jacques
