Precisely.
For a real filibuster, the ones holding it must be willing to sacrifice their own agenda in order to do so. While the filibuster is going on, no other business can transpire.
I'd like to see sometime the other side call their bluff, and say "Fine, let's have that filibuster. Stand there and start talking. We'll see how far you get before your fat butts are too tired, or you've got some other action on the agenda that you want to work on."
