No, this is true. It's a bit of a problem with Wait, in my view. I think it would be entirely reasonable to take the movement portion of your declared response with your Wait, and then not have that if/when the Wait is triggered. So you could step, Wait, and then Attack, Feint, or Ready if triggered – or take up to half your Move, Wait with no defenses, and then All-Out Attack if triggered. This isn't optimal – enemies would probably just run where you can't see/hit them, because they could tell you've committed – but with firearms there's always the threat of you shooting them if they try to shoot you.
