that's right.

that too

the other way is very complicated, because you have to rewrite the external
script into an extension, which can be easy for a one-file-script. 
But to do it really good, you have to use TYPO3-API instead of plain PHP.
This is a lot of work and you need to know a lot of TYPO3.

And doing it with a multi-file-script is much, much more work!
Even if you have a central script, I don't think is not easy.

A good example: phpBB. 
There were some tries to include it into TYPO3 as an extension, but it has
been laid down as far as I know. 
the nearest solution now is CHC-Forum.
