Can you spend surges on a ranged attack that did not roll enough range?

The rulebook allows raising range with surges, but the rest rests on disputed community reports.

Surges can first be spent on +range abilities; if that brings the target in range, you may spend the remaining surges normally. Whether leftover surges still work when range falls short regardless is disputed: a forum post relays an FFG reply saying yes, while an unofficial FAQ says no. An X on the blue die blocks all surges.
