More or less, yes. The CoordinatorCompletion protocol is actually an
extension of the ParticipantCompletion protocol with just one additional
message, "Complete", and the associated state changes.

In a business activity with both PC and CC participants, the initiator
needs to tell the CC participants to complete. After that, CC and PC are
identical so there is no need to handle them separately: both start by
reporting "Completed". The only difference is that PC participants
decide for themselves when work is completed, while CC participants need
to be told by the coordinator.


The "separate handling" referred to one business partner enrolling
multiple participants in one transaction context. While I think this is
legal, they still look like distinct participants to the coordinator and
are handled independently from each other.
