That is correct.
There is some debate about potential star bloat from refractive optics and UV/IR, so you may want to try with the UV/IR filter left in and removed and then choose which works best for you

Edit: Just re-read and realised my comment could be misinterpreted....
"from refractive optics and UV/IR"
By this I meant that some optics(including reflectors with corrective optics) may not be well corrected at the UV and IR ends of the spectrum and may cause bloat without the filter. Not that bloat was caused by the UV/IR filter
