Language tags have no structure, "cn;lang-ja" and "cn;lang-ja-JP-kanji"
are siblings of "cn" attribute type.

Correct.  I think the latest lang tag discussion is more whether
"cn;lang-ja;lang-ja-JP-kanji" is treated as a direct subtype of "cn"
or is treaded as subtypes of both "cn;lang-ja" and "cn;lang-ja-JP-kanji"
(which are subtypes of "cn").
