Default Flying in TFR

There is a presidential TFR in Cincinnati on Monday, right smack in
the middle of my planned flight route. The notam says the inner 10
mile radius is a no-fly zone, and the outer 10-30 miles radius can be
flown with an active VFR or IFR flight plan. I always thought TFR was
restricted entirely, regardless of flight plan. Is this something new,
or am I misinterpreting it? If this is new, can I count on ATC
handling this properly? I am tempted to simply wait it out until the
TFR expires before departing even though it will be a major
inconvenience.
