I thought Clear and Pre were two separate programs and Clear did not guarantee the Pre experience. From what I saw, unlike the old elite line set-up in the south end of the terminal, there's no obvious way to funnel a non-Pre Clear person through the xray/WMD without ducking under barriers.
Nothing guarantees the Pre experience.
