No, I wrote "hosted" instead of "free-standing" in the last sentence.
That's not a negation, though a missing negation could have been used to
express the same (incorrect) meaning.

It's not just that my experience has been exclusively with hosted C.
That would allow for the possibility that I had, at some time, written a
program that could have been run on a free-standing implementation of C,
but I ran it on a hosted one.
Every program I've ever written has required at least one feature of
hosted C (most frequently, the <stdio.h> part of the C standard library).
