Seem mostly reasonable but I'd still hesitate a bit.  Advertising
layers as having particular physical meaning is both more ambitious
and more limiting than just having them be "something like what they
look like in pcb".  It's possible that the current representation
might have multiple useful physical realizations, and once you start
making assumptions about precise physical meaning some of them might
be lost.
