Correct. I had used both at work up until around 2005. The idiot large companies I worked at did not believe in Source Code Control. That is the one thing I liked about RCS/SCCS, once I checked out an item, no one could check in their changes unless they contacted me. Forcing a coordinated manual merge between us.
I tried to get our org on to something for a while, but got massive push back until 5 or 6 years ago when they setup corporate wide paid githup repo.
Before that, I found a small group of developers around 2005 that used CVS and they allowed me to leverage that for my group. But of course I was the only one who used it.
Back then I guess people loved loosing source code, which happened a lot until git.
I convinced a software company to use a version control system (RCS on shared disk) back in 1993. To make it work we had to setup a network — Ethernet over (thin) coaxial cable at the time. This was so new to us that we didn't know we needed to use terminators on the two cable ends.

also rebases instead of merges wouldn't count as merges
I don't think the concept of a rebase existed before Bitbucker and Git.
