Is WD SN700 SSD Suitable for ZFS (ie: Does It Have Power Loss Protection)?

Based on my research it's apparently recommended to only use SSDs with some sort of power loss protection for ZFS. Anyone know if the Western Digital SN700 NVME SSDs has any such protection, even the basic type that only protects committed data but not in flight data?

The power loss protection recommendation is mostly for ZFS SLOG devices.

Regular vDev devices, (boot or data), or L2ARC should be fine without such.
