You are not wrong, but how big of a caveat it is varies. On a client system, it is an incredibly low bar given client side scripting in web browsers (and end users’ tendency to execute random binaries they find on the internet). On a server system, it is incredibly unlikely.
I think the middle ground is to call the effectiveness of ASLR questionable. It is no longer the gold standard of mitigations that it was 10 years ago.
