You're right, and I'll qualify my statement.
During the initial assembly of the front suspension the brace assembly would have to be loose to do the alignment and get a consistent zero point for both sides as the braces have no means to locate the strut tops.
Once aligned and torqued, the 1M/M3 braces should be rigid enough to hold things in place while loosening the strut nuts for track side adjustments of the GC camber plates.
