Entertainment book rate - confirmed qualifying stay?

Although technically from the rules, an AAA rate would be a travel club discount rate and technically shouldn't count either, but we all know it does.
I just booked 2 nights in Adelaide using "Entertainment book rate", which is A$16 cheaper than normal rate per night. Does it worth to risk loose the 5000pt Stay X Get 5000pt promo if this become a non-qualifying stay? The 5K pt easily get a free reward PB night!

Any experience apart from 'gregorygrad'?
