I think your impression is correct, assuming that org-agenda-file-regexp
has not been modified:

,----
| org-agenda-file-regexp is a variable defined in `org.el'.
| Its value is "\\`[^.].*\\.org\\'"
|
| Documentation:
| Regular expression to match files for `org-agenda-files'.
| If any element in the list in that variable contains a directory instead
| of a normal file, all files in that directory that are matched by this
| regular expression will be included.
