yes it was usually considered "cheating" adding in small amounts makes it appear to be of higher proof. it was referred to as "beading oil"
I whould never use it. as there is no problem making or ageing. and don't add anything but grain/water/yeast and a barrel (s)
I understand it can also adds some"sweetness" I whould not want.
