Is that a correct description? Hm. Not really. Let me try to put it in your terms. "real" themes can set customizable variables and customizable face attributes, *plus* it can undo these settings when a theme is uninstalled. color-theme.el can set any variables, any face attributes, and frame parameters, but no undoing of themes.
