Does the temp feeder in 700.3(F) need to comply with 700.10(D)(1) in a high rise?

A high-rise building (over 75' high) with a single generator. NEC 2017

I've been trying to define what is an emergency feeder as it applies to 700.10(D)(1). Typically it is generator to ATS to panel. Does this also include the temporary feeder required in 700.3(F)?

I saw a discussion start on this topic around comment #16 here.
Leaving it to different AHJ interpretations gets annoying. Hoping for something more concrete.

This building is being designed as a shelter-in-place location for bad weather outages. As such, they have connections outside for portable generators to back-up the entire building. Should any of these feeders also be considered emergency feeders?
