No, you are getting an intermediate command mode. For example, before
enabling, use show ? and look at what can be shown; do the same
thing after enabling and you will see the list is different.

You can't access commands such as "copy", but notice that you weren't
prompted for a password; and it would be a breach of security to
expose some of those commands to anyone who was authorized R/O and
has the small amount of wit needed to go to the CLI and 'enable'.
