Other small Schemes include Chibi Scheme, SigScheme, S7, and (less
conformant) librep and FemtoLisp.  Chibi and FemtoLisp are bytecode
compilers, which makes them considerably faster than the rest.
Chibi in particular conforms fully to R5RS and R7RS-small.

I'd say so, with a few notable exceptions.
