Yes you are. Not completely wrongly but there are errors. The short version is as follows: If Tomcat is responsible for reading the request body such as via a call to a method like getParameters(), getParts() etc. then Tomcat will apply the maxPostSize limit. If the application is responsible for reading the request body then the limit does not apply. Hence if an application uses a third-party file upload library or just calls getInputStream() or getReader() the limit will not apply.
