My interpretation:

The problem is that everybody interprets the layers between 4 and 7 differently. Especially when the marketingdroids come into the game,
you can forget clear communication.

You interpretation is just adding another kind of ambiguoity.

Layer 8
-- the human user

Layer 9, politics.
Layer 10, religion.

The real fun starts when you're giving a conference talk and matter of
factly mention the "OSI Ten-Layer Model". Usually, noone dares asking.
And if one does, then you'll have one more audience chuckle in the
talk.
