Can the WLAS reader be used to create a dynamic schema?

I am currently attempting to use the las file reader in FME 2019 on multiple files. Unfortunately, the files are not all the same schema. So, I was wondering if it was possible to read these into a dynamic schema?

I have attempted to create a dynamic workspace with the reader and when attempting to choose the feature types to read the following error is received:

"SOURCE_READER statement must be of the form 'SOURCE_READER <reader type> [<parm> <value>]*' -- `SOURCE_READER WLAS SCHEMA_MODE FEATURE_SCAN -_ENCODING' is invalid : Row came from between lines 1 and 7 of file C:\\Program Files\\FME\\metafile\\WLAS.fmf Failed to read schema features from dataset <path> using the 'wlas' reader"
