Yup, but a lot of us say "CW/data subbands" too.

I have encountered more than a few hams who think that there *are*
CW-only subbands on HF, and don't realize that data modes share
all of that space. 

When someone says "exclusive CW subbands" or "CW-only bandspace"
it's pretty clear they think only Morse Code is allowed.
