Correct. The hardest pitch on the Dawn Wall is rated 9a and in addition the climbing is of a very particular style (slabs) that does not suite most 9a climbers. It is quite possible that the Dawn Wall won't be repeated for a long time.
Alex Honnold has never free climbed any 9a but recently stated that this is one of his next goals.
