Node A cannot know, whether you have scenario 1 or 2.
But an ethernet driver or mac80211 with AP/STA interfaces (without ap-isolation) could. Or tinc with forwarding enabled would know. All these can be pretty sure that things are transitive and could set a TRANSITIVE flag quite safely.
Any other interface type, driver etc. would leave the TRANSITIVE flag unset by default to be on the safe side.
