I always thought that there were only three types. Reincarnation, Transmigration and Transportation, guess I was wrong.

Also, if I remember correctly, Isekai means another world, so if you just travelled through time, but still ended up in the same world, just in a different point in time, I don't think it counts as an Isekai.

For the subtypes, the base thing of entering another world first is an unwritten rule. So, for the 'Time-Isekai', the protagonist has to first have entered into another world, then used an element of time travel.

Also, of course, those are the three types of isekai. You're absolutely correct. I'm just making details for the sake of details, and the fun of it. I suppose I should call my 'types', styles.
