If that were the case, all guitars will have perfect pitch regardless of bridge/saddle location.
Unless the action on your guitar is extremely high, there should be liitle difference between 12th fretted and 12th harmonic.
Anyway it's not a big deal - I'm only posting this because you were trying to correct Kurtma and he was right and you weren't. The right way to do it is to adjust intonation to compensate for the pressure of your finger changing the distance between the bridge and the fret, either by comparing the open note to the fretted 12th or the 12th harmonic to the fretted 12th.
See for yourself:
