Does rear kick benefit from your profiency in kick or brawling skills?

I know it doesn't for kick (which I take to be a forward-facing kick).

Technically, "rear" isn't a "rear kick" so much as "rearing up to
kick", unlike assassin's mule kick which is a directionally backward
kick. Per helpfile -

Not that it invalidates Scarabaeus's comments, but I had to correct
myself of that imagery as well. Which then leads to my question...
when a centaur kicks, is *THAT* a directionally-backwards kick like
horses? Or is it just lashing out with a single hoof? *fistshake*
I blame Scarabaeus.

I really shouldn't comment on anything in a pre-caffeinated state.
