It'll be interesting to see if NIA brings the new e-Gates to other locations like TSA or KHH. Under the e-Gate for Global Entry program, a member can use e-Gates anywhere they are offered, including the ferry port at Kinmen. I have only entered Taiwan at TPE, however, so I haven't been able to verify this. I did leave via TSA once before they were ushering everyone to the e-Gates upon departure, and I was able to use the e-Gates successfully via my e-Gate for Global Entry enrollment.
