You're largely correct, "decriminalized" doesn't mean it's legal, but I just wanted to point out that it doesn't necessarily mean unenforced. Just that it's no longer a criminal charge. Something can be decriminalized and still be in violation of the law and enforced with fines or other deterrents, e.g. traffic violations. You're not a criminal for speeding, it's still illegal and enforced.

Thank you for that correction!
