That is correct.

I have noted this requirement in the Wish List. However, it isn't as
simple as just specifing what to advertise, because Exim should only
accept back requests for advertised mechanisms. This is quite a lot of
complication.

What you can do is to reject AUTH commands that don't use an approved
mechanism in the ACL for AUTH. This may confuse the clients, of course.
