Not really, no.  The current use case (and draft standard) is already
using [1] for policies and [2] for importable keys:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/openssl_tpm2_engine.git/tree/doc/draft-bottomley-tpm2-keys.xml

I'm actually planning to use [3] for signed policies.  There's no
reason why you can't use [4] though.  Since the creation data, hash and
ticket are likely used as a job lot, it strikes me they should be a
single numbered optional sequence instead of individually numbered,
since you're unlikely to have one without the others.
