In Tame and wild matrix problems, Drozd defines an algebra $A$ to be wild if there is an $A-k\langle x,y \rangle$-bimodule $M$, such that ${M \otimes}-$ reflects isomorphisms.

Usually I've seen the definition as ${M\otimes}-$ reflecting isomorphisms and preserving indecomposability. For example in On Corner type Endo-Wild algebrasOn Corner type Endo-Wild algebras, Simson gives this definition and cites Drozd for it.

Thus my question: Are these two definitions equivalent? And if not, for which families of algebras are they known to be equivalent?

Specifically I'm interested in which groups are of wild representation type, but the bimodules constructed in Representation type of finite groups does not appear to preserve indecomposability.

Condition of indecomposability in the definition of wild representation type

In Tame and wild matrix problems, Drozd defines an algebra $A$ to be wild if there is an $A-k\langle x,y \rangle$-bimodule $M$, such that ${M \otimes}-$ reflects isomorphisms.

Usually I've seen the definition as ${M\otimes}-$ reflecting isomorphisms and indecomposability. For example in On Corner type Endo-Wild algebras, Simson gives this definition and cites Drozd for it.

Thus my question: Are these two definitions equivalent? And if not, for which families of algebras are they known to be equivalent?

Specifically I'm interested in which groups are of wild representation type, but the bimodules constructed in Representation type of finite groups does not appear to preserve indecomposability.
