Yes, but those are optional (aren't they?).

IIUC:
checkout == bound branch == heavyweight checkout
checkout != lightweight checkout.

I did check before starting this that a lightweight checkout says
"light checkout" in bzr info.

bzr help checkouts:
   [...]
   However the checkout is still a first class branch in Bazaar terms,
   so that you have the full history locally.
   [...]
   It is also possible to create a "lightweight" checkout by passing the
   --lightweight flag to checkout.
