No, it does not mean you would need to do that.

The more likely scenario is an attacker using another vulnerability, either in the OS itself or in a vendor-supplied component like a driver or anti-cheat module, to gain a foothold for this one. Chaining exploits is a very common technique. (What "trade" are you in, exactly?)

Apply the mitigations when they become available for your hardware, folks.
