That's correct, although see Holding A Foe At Bay (GURPS Martial Arts, p. 106) for ways to leave an impaling weapon inside someone to keep them from advancing . . . unless they're willing and able to impale themselves. Or back off and move back in.

A Stop Thrust is good for doing this, but it's not automatic.
