Basically true for brute force. If you use the default 1970s encryption that the processors provide, it's actually a lot worse due to collisions. You can get into all kinds of funky math there, but yeah basically the more members you have, the more "correct" combinations there are, so it's easier to guess one. See the birthday paradox too.

Any permutation would be tried at m / 2 on average.
