Please refer to the Porter's Handbook §17.19:

  1. Search for the official CPE entry for the software product either
     by using the NVD’s CPE search engine or in the official CPE
     dictionary (warning, very large XML file).  _Do not ever make up
     CPE data._

(emphasis in the original)

So no, that is not the ultimate goal.  Only provide CPE information for
ports which are listed in the official CPE dictionary.
