Yes, you are wrong.

My intent was to say that you should be using the registry in an
unadulterated form.

ALPN is being used now in a number of places to identify protocols.
We've more or less unilaterally decided in httpbis that this means the
entire protocol stack.  I'm thinking that the protocol we're
identifying here is the following stack of protocols:

Data channel protocol (the combination of the data chennel
establishment protocol and the use of the text and binary PPIDs).
SCTP
DTLS
UDP
IP

Yes, there are cases where there are other users, or protocols perched
on top of this tower.  Those could also be identified with an ALPN
identifier too, if they wanted to.

One such higher-level protocol is the combination of this glorious
protocol tower with SRTP.  That's another ALPN identifier.
