It's not accurate. Whether prefix is required depends on whether unprefixed_malloc_on_supported_platforms is enabled and whether the target is compatible with overwriting malloc.

Right, though the default seems to be to use the prefixed version so I thought this was simpler. Should I mention the prefix logic here? I'd need to dig into it a bit more.
