Yes, that's the case. Check the (partial) spec of 5090 D, which is the nerfed version for export to China. It is marketed as having 2375 "AI TOPS".
BIS demands it to be less than $4800 TOPS \times Bit-Width$, and the most plausible explanation for the number is - 2375 sparse fp4/int4 TOPS, which means 1187.5 dense TOPS for 4 bit, or $4750 TOPS \times Bit-Width$.
