[Avid-L2] Rookie TC question

After a billion years in the business I'm being told that when I layback a thirty second spot on a dropframe tape and it starts at 1:00:00;02 it should end at 1:00:30;02 and not at 30:00. This goes against everything I was taught way back yonder in the 2" to 1" transition days.

So, was I told wrong back then, or now? This is the first time I've had someone say it should end on 02. Wouldn't that then be defeating the purpose of dropping frames?
