Yes I believe as this is a standard practice to prevent corrosion leading to stuck seat posts in seat tubes over time.
You probably know that for carbon tubes and seat posts, there is a special kind of grease that helps prevent slipping.
I had the same problem with my Roaduno. I called Rivendell about the seat post slipping. One of the mechanics said it's the binder bolt (to short). They sent a new one. Bolt is still a 6mm, but a little longer. Fixed the problem.
