Yes it is!

Yay! Thank you! If I just leave it be, will it grow like that?

Sorry, just seeking this reply. In theory, it should eventual grow roots and sprout new growth without help, but the ones I've left to do so never seem to get anywhere on their own. It could also be that I'm inpatient or that my environment isn't optimal 🤷‍♀️. I just peel them and root them in perlite with a humidity dome. They usually start developing a leaf in the first 7-10 days.
