Zone recon spread from adjacent zones not working on undiscovered zones?

This is from version 1.01a.
Manual section 5.14.2.2. on zone recon includes the following:
However, for zones you haven't already discovered through a different mechanic, getting the +1 zone recon from neighbouring zones either isn't doing anything or isn't happening. Even if I'm getting 100 hex recon on all hexes of a zone (zone recon level 30 according to the manual), its neighbours remain blacked out and won't appear on the strategic map, so I can't send spies there. As far as I can tell, this means that the only way to find out what's on the other side of zones controlled by another regime is to either annex that regime, or cut a swath through their territory.
