Yeah - the router will not assign them so no need to exclude them. I
would put your approach in the "harmless overconfiguration" category,
but just be careful those don't start adding up causing time
management issues.
It is very good that you are thinking about addresses to exclude since
this can be a MAJOR gotcha with DHCP tasks in the actual lab exam.
