Is it supported to use ROPC flow in confidential app when using MSAL Python

[JimmyLS]

This article mentioned ROPC flow is only supported for public client app.

However when using MSAL Pythong library, we can use function "acquire_token_by_username_password" function under confidential client app and it works.

app = ConfidentialClientApplication(client_id, client_credential, authority) result = app.acquire_token_by_username_password(username, password, scope)

Could you please confirm if this is supported (while we know it's not recommended)?
