Correct.

The problem is that PKI, in general, does not offer cryptographic
security but just assumes intelligent intermediate entities of CAs,
which are called trusted third parties, are trustworthy, which
is improper social, not cryptographic, assumption as was demonstrated
by a compromised CA of diginotar about 10 years ago.
