Yes, this is correct.

Not quite. If you've selected one or more users in the blog
readers
list, the complete set of people that can access the blog is
the union
of all owners, publishers, contributors and readers.

Easier yes, but that doesn't cater for the use case where
you want to
let people read the blog but not actually have any
privileges. For
example, I run a private blog where friends and family can
view
photos. They are required to login but don't have the
ability to
contribute, etc.
