Looks about right to me.

The uninstaller will currently just remove it all. Conditional removal
of the associations will be tricky; I'll look into it.
I also wonder whether assoc only changes the settings for the current
user. In that case, uninstalling a Python version that was per-machine
would not affect the user's association, anyway.
