This is essentially what I thought would happen, but some quick searches made it sound like that's all that was required. But that didn't make sense, which you pretty much just confirmed.

If you have any open vents in the attic space, get some flexible pipe and temporarily have the air move right to the vent opening. You'll at least get much of it leaving. Then insulate the rest, and do it all properly in the spring.
