No, I don't know what made you think so.
Section 4.3 currently defines ranges. For example, it says, e.g.:
The Chinese and Japanese styles are defined for all numbers between ...
If we drop section 4.3, do we still need ranges -- as upper or lower
bounds for list style numbering?
There will, as the spec notes, limits in implementions:
There's also an implicit range coming from implementation limits.
CSS 2.1. does not have ranges (though wrapping is not definde for
alphabetic values) and I don't see the need to -- say -- introduce
ranges for the 'decimal' type.
