Correct
.
I haven't double-checked since, but, outside of the actual notepad, it should only switch to "note taking" mode (i.e., 3-cores) if it detects a pen hover. (That... appeared to be broken on the initial firmware, where opening any note-capable document (e.g., an official KePub) seemed to just mostly stick to that mode).
