Per definition yes, but UTC-4 is not Unicode. As well (any UCS-4 code unit) & 0xFFE00000 == 0 (i.e. 21 bits) is not Unicode, UTF-32 is Unicode (more restrictive than just 21 bits which would allow 32 planes instead of just the 17 first ones). I suppose he meant 21 bits, not 11 bits which covers only a small part of the BMP.
