yes, that's correct.
Section 6.3 states:
"All values are in the state undefined when processing starts." and
"A dictionary can be explicitly reset. Resetting a dictionary will set the state of all its entries to undefined."
Regarding a field with a copy operator, section 6.3.5 states:
"When the value is not present in the stream there are three cases depending on the state of the previous value:
...
- undefined – the value of the field is the initial value that also becomes the new previous value.
..."
