That's exactly what happens.
When a way (or relation's) tags, or the list of nodes that make it up is
changed (or reorded) then the way (or rel.) gets a new version number
(and hence datetime). But if a node is moved, then that node gets a new
version number (and datetime), but it doesn't change the way.
Which can be a bit annoying if you want do real deep dives into the OSM
history, but it's not that big a problem.
