Just so, except that "sgn" (not in 639-3) is treated as a macrolanguage
encompassing the sign languages, and an encompassed language that has
its own 639-2 or 639-1 tag is not converted to an extlang.

I'm not sure what you are calling for here: should Serbo-Croatian
be marked as a macrolanguage in the LSR or not?
