Would a Light hash rate (LHR) graphics card limit the performance of the progressive GPU lightmapper

Does anyone know if the Lite Hash Rate (LHR) versions of the current RTX 30 series cards would have any affect on the speed of the Progressive GPU Lightmapper? I understand the option is there to limit its use in crypto mining but before I buy one, I wanted to make sure it would not also limit the speed that the Progressive GPU lightmapping works.

Nvidia's Lite Hash Rate technology is designed to foil Ethereum miners and get more GeForce graphics cards in the hands of gamers. DNAHRBlock.com

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Are you saying that the two calculation are different enough that it would have no impact on lightmapping calculation speed? My concern was that since light mapping is also an intensive calculation using the GPU that is not strictly gameplay the limitation measures used to reduce effectiveness of use for crypto mining might also limit the calculations for lightmapping. I have no understanding of how close or different these calculations would be, hence the question.
