Yes: ":noweb no" is the default, and must *not expand* anything.

It should be "-", "-", "-" here, if "-" means "no expansion".

I'd find that interesting as well, but then the names of the code blocks must
be visible again (in HTML and PDF exports), something that has disappeared
over time.

Find attached the 2 PDF I had written (in 2009) for comparing NoWeb's
rendering of blocks and Babel's rendering. See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2009-12/msg00170.html.

Some time after that, we had block names in the HTML/PDF output, but not
anymore.

Best regards,
