Sole Survivor vs BBQ & Chilli

We all know:
1) Sole Survivor disrupts killer's Aura reading abilities within 20/24/28 meters for each survivor dead;
2) BBQ & Chilli reveals the killer, who hooks a survivor, the Auras of survivors farther than 52/46/40 meters from the hook;
then I ask you the following: when a survivor is hooked for the third time and is immediately sacrificed, is their death counted as a multiplier of 20/24/28 meters for Sole Survivor or not? I fear not, because the game treats the sacrificed survivor as dead, with all the consequences (opening of the hatch, for example), only at the end of the Entity animation, while BBQ activates when the survivor is hooked, that is a few seconds before. If I'm right, Sole Survivor should immediately be fixed, because it doesn't grant the last survivor the protection they expect from that perk. Now it is like the policeman wearing the bulletproof vest after the gunman fired at him.

@not_Queen @Patricia Your wisdom is required, please.

People of the Fog, have you any evidence about that issue?

My proposal is that the game should consider a survivor dead not at the end, but at the beginning of the Entity animation (in fact, they are dead before their body's dark shadow is eaten by the Entity).

    @Peanits Could you please clarify if my suspicions about the mechanics of Sole Survivor are founded? Apart from that, I leave it to your wise assessment if this thread should stay here or be moved to the bugs section. :)
