Pretty much, yes.

Or you could do any number of things to communicate that there are more results using an alternate spelling. But please don't silently drop search terms I explicitly typed into the search bar.

+ing terms is a nuisance & usually has to be done after you've searched and missed "the exact page you were searching for". Maybe I'm in the minority but I find this awkward compared to Google search of old.

Oh I completely agree, there should definitely be some indication or link to process the search exactly as typed from the results page (or a user preference to make one the default). That's how spelling suggestions work, so there's already precedence for it.
