Yes, that is my understanding.

In other words, it's path haba'ah bekisnin.  Can PhBbK be used for lechem
mishneh?  In general the answer is "no", though there are hints to be found
in some poskim that there might be grounds for allowing it.

Keviut Seudah does not simply mean using it as the anchor for a meal;
there are shiurim given, ranging up to six beitsim or more, which is
quite a lot.
