No, not true: queries with LIMIT x are perfectly parallelizable.

The trouble with the protocol-level limit (setMaxRows) is that it
requires being able to suspend the query and resume fetching rows
later. We don't allow that for parallel query because it would
involve tying up vastly more resources, ie a bunch of worker
processes, not just some extra memory in the client's own backend.
