n9504 - no ISSU support

Hello,

to our unpleasant surprise, n9504 with dial SUP B+ and N9K-C9504-FM-E fabric modules does not support non-service disruptive ISSU updates:

9504# install all nxos bootflash:nxos64-cs.10.4.3.F.bin non-disruptive

Installer will perform compatibility check first. Please wait.

Pre-upgrade check failed. Return code 0x4093009C (Non-Disruptive ISSU is not supported on modular platform.).

Found this:

The ISSU feature is not supported on any Nexus 9504, 9508, or 9516 chassis with N9K-C95xx-FM-Ex or N9K-C950x-FM-R fabric modules inserted in the chassis. Software upgrades with this hardware combination will be disruptive and will require the switch to reload.

Any chance  N9K-C9504-FM-G supports ISSU, since only the -E and -R models are listed as not compatible in the article above?

The above page does not show 9500 at all, so the article I've provide is incomplete I guess?

No hope on 9500 ever supporting ISSU? If so, what was the Cisco's goal here to support ISSU for 9300s, 9400s, but not 9500s?
