I am not arguing just mentioning about these and hope you or anyone else can add to it
Quick answer ....Yes..... to both questions.
Plus there are many great and accurate internet videos which support both opinions.

Pick the opinion which best suits you growing needs.

Me.....For fun do bonemeal amendment like Espoma added in a personal custom mix.
Results are predictable,quick and noticeable.
