True.

I am, however, regretfully ignorant regarding the requirements existing
and emerging digital signature legislation might set on the presence or
absence of keyUsage bits in end-entity certificates. There may, for all
I know, exist Certification Authorities that are legally bound to set,
and thus applications legally bound to interpret, the non-repudiation
bit in a certain fashion.
