"Dragging it in" does not necessarily mean "in in the area of reverse
command". It just means that you have added power instead of reducing
drag by retracting flaps or gear, etc. "The area of reverse command"
is an exteme example.

The coffin corner of the back side of the power curve is the extreme.
You can add power flaps or no flaps and still be well on the front side
of the power curve.
Generally speaking, if you are "dragging it in, you are most certainly
in the area of reverse command
