Can you overexpose D-Cinelike like you do on a Mirrorless Camera?

If you shoot Clog3 on Canon or SLog on Sony it's normal to overexpose a between a stop and two stops. As for the Mini 3 Pro, can you overexpose close to one stop and then pull it down in post processing? If not, where is the sweet spot to expose on the Mini 3 Pro?
 
Clog3 is a different animal entirely. And let's face it, the DJI cameras aren't nearly as sophisitcated as Canon and Sony professional cameras. In short, NEVER clip your highlights. Shadow detail from slightly underexposed pictures and video is far easier to recover.

D-Cinelike is not a log curve and it’s still a rec 709 color profile so it’s really what you see is what you get just a little flatter on look. I definitely wouldn’t overexpose.

Sounds good, I'll go as far as i can without clipping the highlights.
