How does Cunning Ploy interact with Uncontrolled Rage from Obara Sand?

If you use Cunning Ploy when you activate a unit with Obara Sand Sand Snake attachment, do you get to do the Uncontrolled Rage ability?

Need an FAQ

The majority of players play this as NO you cant.

We need an FAQ, cause it is not clear at all if Cunning Ploy and Uncontrolled Rage share the same trigger (if that was the case, yes you could target Obara's unit and still do his Uncontrolled Rage ability since you decide the order of resolution of your abilities).

If we look on the FAQ for Season 4 we have this :

UNCONTROLLED RAGE
Errata: Each time this unit Activates, if it can Charge an enemy, it
performs 1 Morale Test. On a failure, it performs 1 Charge Action
on the nearest valid enemy and counts as rolling a 6 for all Charge
Distance Dice (this is their Action for the Turn).
Q: Can a Cavalry unit with Uncontrolled Rage perform the free
Maneuver Action first?
A: No.

The trigger for Cavalry ability is the same as Cunning Ploy so we can assume that the answer in the FAQ counts for Cunning Ploy too?
