I don't believe this is true. From the sshd man page:
command="command"
Specifies that the command is executed whenever this key is
used for authentication. The command supplied by the user (if
any) is ignored. The command is run on a pty if the client
requests a pty; otherwise it is run without a tty. If an 8-bit
clean channel is required, one must not request a pty or should
specify no-pty. A quote may be included in the command by
quoting it with a backslash. This option might be useful to
restrict certain public keys to perform just a specific
operation. An example might be a key that permits remote backups
but nothing else. Note that the client may specify TCP and/or
X11 forwarding unless they are explicitly prohibited. Note that
this option applies to shell, command or subsystem execution.
