in a nutshell yes it does
you dont realy want to plate until after welding if you can and the weld will blast it off the serface and mix it into your weld making it harder and can make prone to cracking in some cases also makes a mess
try welding a plated nut to plate and then an unplated nut to plate you will see the diffrence also not nice when tiging
