Hi folks,
We have numerous threads in this forum ranging from different opinions. I am creating this singular thread, which you all can update, and work on for only discussing
"Does the work experience gained during implied status, valid for the meeting the 12 Months requirements?"
For speculation, here are some custom/random values generated. These are not true for me at all.

Which implies that it is the latest document.
Moreover, people linking this webpage https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/permanent-residence/economic-classes/experience/qualifying-work-experience.html in other threads are quoting rules from 2014, which are not at all valid as of Jan 2020.
So, let's decipher the current upto date immigration laws as of Jan 2020.
If you all kind folks, please take a look at this link here:- https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/ministerial-instructions/express-entry-application-management-system/current.html

So I am assuming this, is latest rules and regulations concerning Express Entry, which has a sub class CEC(Canadian Experience Class).
Now if you are at that site, search for "Work experience — requirements" (Now the there are only 2 terms in whole site for that search, 1st one is rules for people who are single, 2nd one for those who are married or applying as a couple). I am single, and showing that use-case here, for now.
As we read the data: -
Work experience — requirements
(7) For the purposes of this section,
Here I am focusing on points for the above-mentioned person: -
a) Was not full time student, when started working full time (Good)
b) Not Self-employed, or unauthorized work as they were covered under implied status.
c) As TRV was expiring on 31st April 2019, and PGWP was approved before that, this is also good.
d) Full time work, 40 hr/week (Good)
So, in short, my understanding is, the above person can count the experience under implied status and can submit Express Entry profile on 16th January 2020.

(7) For the purposes of this section,
- (a) a period of employment during which the foreign national was engaged in full-time study is not to be included in calculating a period of work experience;
- (b) a period of self-employment or unauthorized work is not to be included in calculating a period of work experience;
- (c) the foreign national must have had temporary resident status during their period of work experience and any period of full-time study or training; and
- (d) the full-time equivalent for part-time work experience is 30 hours of work per week.
