You are correct. It only applies to skill rolls.

(And I've never found a high defense to be unbeatable. I routinely face parry skills of 16+ in Cherry Blossom Rain. I'll grant you that parry is easier to get around than dodge, as you can start to stack multi-use penalties on it and you can't parry bullets, but supers generally don't worry about bullets anyway, and any highly skilled character with the right tricks can get around a high defense value).
