Well, yes, that's true.
But imagine if she skates her BEST- better than she did at the Olympics. I think she would be proud no matter how it turned out, to close so strongly. Then, IMO, she will probably decide four more years isn't worth it and then retire. I think she just wants a world title; once (or if) she gets it, I think she's history.
