YMMV, I guess (Your Mileage May Vary).
I have found that they are more lenient and will turn a blind eye if you're checking in/flying in J or F. But I have had to check it in when flying economy because it was "too heavy" (forget about getting the orange tag). This is EXP and CX GLD notwithstanding.
