On the other hand the USCIS (former INS) may consider the BFRs as

Check your local US embassy or consulate

No, the former INS has already said that BFRs and checkouts for the
purpose of vacations/hour building do not require a F J or M visa.
Citizens from visa waiver countries can legally do this sort of thing
without a visa.
