Yep exactly that. The rack has a pressure relief valve in to compensate for the variation in pump pressure with rpm. It this obviously doesn't matter with the electric pump.
You could also turn it off when you wanted for hard man driving or if you was clever, work out a way so it only works below a certain speed. That wouldnt be too difficult.
