My bad: this is yet another case in which I've assumed past practice in one part of 639 to imply similar practice in other parts of 639. Unlike "sh", which was deprecated when "hr" and "sr" were added, "no" was not deprecated when "nb" and "nn" were added.

Even so, the point I was making remains valid: "no-nb" or "no-nob" or "no-nn" or "no-nno" would not be compatible with existing usage.
