In Adventurers League, does Magic Initiate let you take a spell that is not in your PHB+1?

Question

In Adventurers League, does Magic Initiate let you take a spell that is not in your PHB+1? We know that "Feats and spells gained by advancement are subject to PHB+1", but in this case Magic Initiate is part of the PHB+1 and that in general is possible obtain spell out the PHB+ if out the advancement in level (see wizards)

How can you get a spell outside of PHB+1 by circumventing advancement? — Honore Shadeshield, Dec 19 '18 at 15:39

@HonoreShadeshield I think the related question I linked answers your question — Sdjz, Dec 19 '18 at 16:31
I feel like a few words were accidentally omitted here: "that in general is possible obtain spell out the PHB+ if out the advancement in level (see wizards)"... It's not clear what exactly you're saying there. — V2Blast, Dec 20 '18 at 01:06
There is nothing "general" about the way wizards learn/know spells - they're probably the most significant deviation from how other classes handle it. — T.J.L., Dec 20 '18 at 13:39

Magic Initiate is subject to PHB+1.

You've already quoted the relevant bit of rules text. Magic Initiate is a feat and feats are gained by advancement. It is therefore subject to PHB+1.
