reynolds, no, that is not correct on the definition, a conventional fix is not by definition a flyover waypoint.
I didn't say it was - I said it was the "equivalent". There is no turn anticipation designed into conventional procedures - something that must be appreciated when flying overlay procedures. Nothing whatsoever to do with RNP procedures ...

From an AIP:
Aircraft flying published instrument departure procedures based on
terrestrial navigation aids must fly-over associated NAVAID’s/Fixes unless
otherwise instructed. Operators using FMS to fly these conventional
procedures must ensure the procedures are appropriately coded in their
FMS to achieve this requirement
