I think there is no reason to have doubts about the finishing processes.
You can model a cement manufacture process with or without separate finishing process(es). A separate finishing process may be useful for simplifying the process representation, when there are several possible clinker production technologies and/or fuels that can used for the whole process. But you can also model the whole process from limestone and fuels to Portland cement with a single TIMES process.
