I've confirmed that Cygwin's Python interpreter works fine with PyCharm as long as the Path environment variable is set correctly. So I think a more accurate interpretation of their statement is "We don't know whether or not it will work and won't or can't comment on if it will, nor provide support for it". But it does work. >> It's pretty low-priority for me though.
