Yes, exactly that. The AXI I3C core is not a hard block: it is soft IP
instantiated in the FPGA fabric, and IBI and Hot-Join are per-instance
parameters selected in Vivado when the design is built.

The compatible does track the IP version, and a future AXI I3C v2.0
would get its own string. But IBI and Hot-Join are not version
differences: they are independent build time options of this same v1.0
core, so putting them in the compatible would mean several strings for
one IP version, growing combinatorially with every future option.
