I think it is safe to make this assumption, however look below with klatin -
there is explanation

The thing is that many applications are provided by the repositories in
tde - for example klatin is in tdeedu and kmail, knotes etc. is in tdepim.
I think the search is finding only names of repositories and not what apps
those repositories provide (or packages).

So yes the apps are in tde and applications, but those in tde are not
explicit. There is one repository to provide many apps/packages.

This was hard to understand in the beginning, but it makes sense.
I now have a copy of tde-packaging and do something like

$ grep klatin-trinity -r  ../tde-packaging/debian/stretch/ | grep Package
../tde-packaging/debian/stretch/tdeedu/debian/control:Package:
klatin-trinity

and there you have it
