Yep. Work profile and apps are completely disparate, and it's actually kind of tough to transfer any data across the boundary even if you wanted to. Any time I need to send a picture to my work Slack I have to remind myself to use the work profile camera app.
It's the same tech that powers the Secure Folder thing in Android devices. My older S8 was on Android 8 or 9 and still had this functionality, so I'm not sure how old you'd have to go to have a less secure setup.
