That's true. I've exclusively encountered it in its toxic form, but that is a useful way of applying it.
How it's used now (as an instance of "you only believe/feel differently from me because x") is *definitely* a social defection. Broadly speaking, any justification for "mind-reading as rebuttal" is toxic & the very worst justifications are both plausible & irrefutable by design
