Please explain how you do not agree with these.

(Itself a language, category 1.  Carries category 2 and category 3 inside.)

Yes.  The repertoire makes this implicitly 1D; a category 2.
However, there is no beyond-ASCII character in there, so this is cheating; we’ve known since the 1970s how to describe these.

That works as a category 3, e.g., for “description”.
But it doesn’t tell me what a U+007F or a U+0009 does or whether I’m supposed to implement a U+008B Partial Line Forward (I’ve used these a lot on my Diablo 630, but never a U+008C Partial Line Backward).
There appears to be an implicit understanding that you will use RFC 5198 with those texts, which could use an update after 17 years.
