Default Atmos beds and scene boundaries

(Obviously everyone has their own preferences, the style of the piece may dictate a certain method, and as soon as someone is appointed to do the job I shall ask them their preference, but in the meantime ...)
How do re-recording mixers typically like the scene boundaries of atmos beds track laid?

With the exception of scenes where the sound is deliberately meant to bleed from one scene into another, I have been considering two options for a scene change at 01:02:00:10 (assuming the atmos tracks are checker boarded)

Option 1:
Hard cuts on both outgoing and incoming atmos beds at 01:02:00:10
Option 2:
A 1 frame fade out at the end of the outgoing atmos starting at 01:02:00:10 and ending at 01:02:00:11
A 1 frame fade in at the beginning of the incoming atmos starting at 01:02:00:09 and ending at 01:02:00:10

My reason for the latter is that it avoids clicks and pops and the scene changes don't slap you in the face, and in most casses the effective cross fade should be pretty much imperceptible to the audience. But I suspect this may be an unconventional approach.
