Changing non-printing keys in keyboard layout

I seem to have a problem with the modifier keys affecting other
layouts. For instance, in ~/symbols/pc I have added these lines to the
bottom:

partial  modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "noah" {
   modifier_map Lock { <AB05> };
};

However, now the B key is Caps Lock in the standard US keyboard layout
as well! How can I restrict this change only to the Noah variant?
Would I be better off making Noah not a variant of US but rather it's
own separate layout?

Thanks!
