No Oliver the code is correct. your statement "which should be" is wrong
though,  you appear to be ill-advising.

To access the socket events like _Read the socket is named at creation with
'As "MySocket"'
then a function like...
Public Sub MySocket_Read() becomes available.
Or..
PUBLIC MySock As Socket  ' defines a socket object but does not create one
MySock = New Socket As "MyNewSocket"  '  creates the socket with a
reference name of MyNewSocket
with the above code MySocket_Read() event will not happen but
MyNewSocket_Read() will.
Do you understand?
