As I put into the doc, I don't think that's quite right.

If both the source and dest ULAs are in the same /48 then I think the correct
default is as you say (use ULA).

If the source and dest ULAs are in different /48's then I think the correct
default is instead to use the non-ULA global, since there's no guarantee of
routability between different /48s.  So unless configured otherwise, one
has to assume it's far more problematic than a non-ULA global.

You'll find the above logic in the current 3484bis draft.
