Yes. That is a major key to it. It will read groups but then I believe you get a separate line item for each copy.
Components make sense anyway because they improve editing efficiency. If you are going to the cutlist level with a drawing, draw every piece you'd have to make in wood as a component. If you were going to make a solid wood panel, draw it as the separate pieces of wood you'd need to glue together. Otherwise it will tell you that you need a board the full width of the piece. That's fine if you can get it and control it but wide pieces of wood tend to be difficult to control as they'll want to cup and warp.
