Seems like your question got sidelined by the debate over what Sport+ actually does. Here's my advice:

During the break-in period, you're supposed to avoid a number of very specific behaviors:

* Do not use wide-open-throttle
* Keep the RPMs below 4k (check your manual for the specific RPM)
* Do not drive the car at a constant RPM for extended periods

The answer to your question requires some nuance. The goal during break-in is to satisfy these requirements. When you put the car in Sport+, do you think it will be easier or more difficult to stay within the parameters specified by the break-in period?

This seems like an easy answer to me. The sharper throttle response alone would make it more difficult to avoid wide-open-throttle. Personally, I'd keep the car in Comfort for the duration of the break-in. Once you've got that first oil change out of the way, let 'er rip.
