Hey, I had to do the YWE VOR approach for my MECIR test and I was having this exact conversation with the ATO when giving my pre-approach brief to him. And guess what? We couldn't agree either whether an extra 50 feet had to be added to the MDA.
So I decided to level off at 2800 ft anyway, as this would add the 50 ft requirement just in case, as well as keep me within the + 100 feet tolerance of the MDA, so all was sweet. BTW, during my training, we always added 50 ft to the MDA for YWE VOR because Area QNH is used as you can't get an actual QNH there. Hope this helps.
