That is how I would interpret it.  I don't keep track of MIS pages, but my
workflows that use curves need for all color information to be eliminated
before the application of the printing curves.  So, going to grayscale,
working up the image, saving the GS image, and then converting to RGB to
apply the curve and print (deleting the RGB image) are the usual steps.
