I would not agree.
See 7.3,

We can only say CL % AL is equivalent to CL × AL and CL ×
SP* ÷ AL here. So CL × AL is not equivalent to CL % AL.
Because the left hand side doesn't have "and CL × SP* ÷
AL" part.
I would say in other words, if A × B allowed a break,
the A × B rule would be no information.
I think CL × AL doesn't allow a break between CL and AL, doesn't
it?
