No you're spot on. I had the same trouble with my van ignition (90,000 miles!) and had to get new keys and a new barrel.
Same thing happens with my Fazer. Takes about 20 attempts to turn on and it's only done 12,000 miles! Not a huge problem as it's my project bike and hoping to use the KTM ignition.
Feel the Fear and do it anyway!
