Legally, yes, it is indeed -- but it's only complex operationally if you try to do more than is necessary for operations appropriate to the place and time out of your lane. When we start weaving in and out of lanes or take advantage of no lane markings to hog the road then life always becomes more complex. Unduly so...
PS: and now we have a new COIN, Combat Operations In support of another Nation. That definition does translate readily into LOAC terms.
Yep. Also far more accurate for most cases than the other meaning which has become stigprostioverregulized.
