Correct, but if used improperly or too often it may also cause problems.
Partly replacements of a page for example pretty much defeat the purpose
of the browser's back button - you just can't get back the usual way,
but have to use the site's navigation again. A navigation completely
based on AJAX is usually not very user-friendly.
