Correct. The ignition switch is a separate part from the key cylinder. The key cylinder actuates the ignition switch.
Replacing the ignition switch does not affect your current key. Your key is coded to the PCM and the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module. If neither of these was replaced you did not require a new key.
Of course I could be wrong!
