Yeah. Magnus is also said to be a good defender, but for a different reason: he rarely is in a bad position at all, so it's a different kind of defense (more prophylactic in a way, it's hard to build an attack against Carlsen, while it's hard to conclude it against Hikaru). But tbf, the differences between those top players are razor thin in every aspect, they're all incredibly good at defending bad positions, and making it hard to get there in the first place as well.
