Default question about Mavic neutral Support

Ok, here is a silly question. But not as silly as the one last week
about pros using tandems

While watching the tour the other night, my girlfriend was commenting
on the BRIGHT YELLOW cars (Mavic). I explained to her about the
neutral support that provides wheels for riders in case of flats.
That got me to wondering. (wich can be dangerous, I will admit)

Regarding Mavic's neutral support bikes. What about the pedals? I
mean, If a pro calls for a neutral bike (OK, I know that the order is
get a teamates/domestique's or get a bike from team car)will a
mechaning magically spin on the correct pedals that match the cleats
the rider is using? (note a tiny bit or sarcasm).

Or are we approaching a point, or have we even passed it, in
professional cycling where all the teams using propriatery
technologies means the end of "neutral support" as we have known it.

Just a thought,
Jay
