Does this also hold for the unprocessed version of soy as edamame pods and beans?
Usually not, but not because it's unprocessed, but because when you eat it in its natural form, you tend to eat far smaller quantities of it. The same way natural plant sugars aren't bad when you eat them in their natural state, because dosages are much lower, but once you process and concentrate the sugar, it's much easier to get the bad effects because you're now eating them in obscene quantities.
Soy flour, milk, etc, has you eating soy -and all it's negative effects- in much larger quantities than you ever would eating them in their natural state -especially when you eat them as staples- which is exactly where the problem lays: excessive food consumption of any given food amplified all the things which are bad about eating that food, which ends up being bad with just about any kind of food out there (including 'healthy' foods). You need variety and diversity first and foremost, which is why any kind of processed food ends up being problematic (some such as soy and wheat more than others): it provides an excessive amount of calories from a single source, amplifying the bad, and making it less likely you'll eat a balanced diet overall, because you're getting a substantial amount of calories from only a few sources, and almost every source of food has upsides and downsides.
As such, unprocessed soy will still mimic your body's hormones, but when you're talking about eating such small quantities, there's actually evidence (from studies in mice, no evidence in humans other than anecdotal based on lifespans in populations in Asia with high consumption of soy products in their natural and fermented forms) that it offers some protection against certain forms of cancer.
Fermented soy products, such as miso, fermented soy sauce, and tempeh are generally considered safer than raw or processed soy products, because the fermentation process breaks down the phytic acid, and modifies some of the problematic soy proteins into safer forms.
