In a nutshell thats it. From my understanding the round must defeat an "Armor calculation" before damaging the target compartment. HE has a larger payload but less armor defeating properties. So for instance, you may use AP on both but you are missing out on the extra damage to be had with HE on soft targets.
I'm sure someone can give you a more definitive explination.
