My Lab result on "pim nbma-mode" using SM, SD, DM

Guys

I set up a lab using R1,R2,R4,and R5.
R2,4,5 are F/R multipoint and R2 is hub and R4& R5 are spoke.
I created R4 and R5 igmp join-group 235.0.0.1
R2 is MA as well as RP.

I focused on the affect of pim nbma-mode on F/R multipoint uinsg SM, SD, DM.
I validate based on ping result from R1 to 235.0.0.1 and mroute from R2.

My result showes pim nbma-mode is always needed regardless of SM, SD, DM.
This is the only way R1 can get ping reply-back from R4 and R5

I know cisco doesn't recommend pim nbma-mode on DM or SD but it is necessray based on my lab unless I am doing something wrong.

Here is config and result
