You understanding is correct.
Existing accounts will be able to use launch configurations with EC2 instance types that were available and launched prior to December 31, 2022. You can run and scale these workloads just like you would do prior to December 31, 2022.
After December 31, 2022 AWS will not be adding new EC2 instance type support to launch configurations. To use new instance types in your Auto Scaling group, you will need to employ launch templates. All new EC2 instance types will be made available and supported in launch templates.

I was about to post this very question. I'm 99% sure that your interpretation is correct but it still feels ambiguous. I just want to be absolutely sure that my current launch configs that use the t3 nitro instances will continue to scale.
Edit* This section of the notice seems to be more clear:
December 31, 2022
I think it safe to say current instance types will function just fine.
@UnitedThroughReading 1) Just wanted to make sure you saw the answer below. 2) Very appropriate username for your callout here ;)
