Almost - but with some caveats. The 3-4 categories work. However:

Category 1: non-UK EASA FCL licences: granted automatic validation for a maximum of 2 years, but only until the first revalidation of relevant ratings. Eg an IR expiring in March makes the licence rather less useful for a UK AOC holder, even if the other ratings remain valid for the rest of the year. Slightly easier for FIs "just" doing VFR SEP instruction since they may have up to 2 unhindered years.

Category 2: UK FCL licences: yes, carry on as for now. No embedded IMC privileges though - the ANO references to these are for licences that won't fall under the new UK FCL document (technically written into existence in 2019 as a copy and paste of EASA FCL). Hence why I'm trying to steer away from describing them as national licences, although that is what they are, since they won't fall under what we've understood as national licences for the last 20 years.
