Guitar Hero Van Halen Wii Not Compatible with Rock Band Drums

Guitar Hero Van Halen for Nintendo Wii is not compatible with Rock Band Drums, according to Activision Customer Support.  See the Q & A posted by Activision:

Question

What instruments are compatible with this game?

Answer

Guitar Hero: Van Halen is compatible with all previous guitars from previous Guitar Hero titles for this console.

Rock Band Wii Guitars are not supported.

Guitar Hero: Van Halen is compatible with Guitar Hero drums only.

Guitar Hero: Van Halen is compatible with both the Guitar Hero and Rock Band microphones.

Are the Rock Band Wii Guitars Compatible with Guitar Hero Van Halen?

Notice how carefully they word the Q&A.  GHVH is "compatible with Guitar Hero drums only".  But "Rock Band Wii Guitars are not supported."

So does this mean that the Rock Band drums simply don't work (likely considering that GHVH is based off the older, pre-GH5 Guitar Hero World Tour and Guitar Hero Metallica engine)?  And that the Rock Band Wii Guitar DOES work, but is simply not "supported" by Activision Customer Support?
