Does stealing via "Mug" also count towards the Talent for Acquisition trophy?

Does stealing via "Mug" also count towards the Talent for Acquisition trophy? - Bird Beside Container on the Table

I'm playing the FFX Remaster for PS4 and was looking through the trophies when I came across this one:

A Talent for Acquisition - Steal successfully with Rikku 200 times.

Can this be unlocked via the ability, Mug (Steal ability + damage), or does it have to be the actual Steal ability?

After a quick Google on the matter, I found a forum thread about an (unrelated) issue with this trophy. The last post in the thread claimed you could use either but had no evidence backing this claim, so I don't really want to take this as gospel.

The FF wiki page only lists the trophy name, picture and description.
