Yes, S2 is a congruent DGGS. Unfortunately, it kind of straddles the analytics and visualization property space, being not particularly good at either. It made some design choices, like being projective, that limit its generality as an analytic DGGS. In fairness, its objectives were considerably more limited when it was created. The potential use cases have changed since then.
