Yes, exactly so.

The only the side point I'd make is: 3066bis is written in a way that makes a new tag's contents identifiable even if a particular subtag is not. Even if you don't know what the script 'xyzz' is, you can identify that it is a script subtag and do something less stupid with it. 

There are many language tag matching or lookup applications that don't rely on knowing the "meaning" of a subtag, only how to compare values.

Internationalization is not a feature.
It is an architecture.
