Yes, that is right - that's the purpose of attesting builds.

Do you see any other alternative?

The current formats (publish and SLSA provenance) are for attesting publishing and build steps, respectively, but there's nothing stopping PyPI from adding a different, new attestation statement for local builds (something that conveys "I did this locally, and I was this principal (email address) when I did it").
