This is correct, and normal behavior actually. That's already accomodated for in modern designs.

What isn't is the extra lift at high-AoA and longer lever arm for the lift force to operate through. MCAS was meant to counter that, and arguably would have been a perfectly reasonable fix if they'd have designed it to the proper degree of redundancy, and actually told pilots how it worked and that it existed.
