Private Message Can't Be Reached with private messaging disabled

Just noticed why it’s removed…

I’ve disabled this option from settings:
“Allow trust level 1 (configurable via min trust level to send messages) users to create messages and reply to messages. Note that staff can always send messages no matter what.”

I thought it would stop everyone from sending out messages and it won’t affect staff members.

I’m an Admin (Trust Level 4) and when this option is disabled, I don’t get the message icon nor the button as shown in the above picture.

Is that normal?
