Psychic Refocus Limitations

If you've spent Focus Points only to amp psi cantrips or fuel psychic abilities since the last time you Refocused, you regain 2 Focus Points when you Refocus, up to your maximum of 2. If you've spent Focus Points on focus spells or abilities other than those from the psychic class (for instance, to cast a focus spell you gained from an archetype), you regain only 1 Focus Point.

So I can essentially ignore the above limitations provided I have 20 minutes to refocus? Am I reading that right?

Example 1: I spend both focus points on psychic abilities. I Refocus for 10 minutes and get both back. Time Spent: 10 min.

Example 2: I spend both focus points on non-psychic abilities. I Refocus for 10 minutes and get only one focus point back. However, I then spend that focus point immediately on a psychic ability, then Refocus again to get both focus points back. Time Spent: 20 min.

Assuming both examples are possible and true, it doesn't seem like much of a limitation. Am I missing anything?
