It obviously does, because that is one of the reasons distributions have to
equip their kernels with initramfs: they are needed on machines that would otherwise
fail to boot due to the fact they will be unable to mount / on boot.

If you still think that is not the case, please:

    that allows a kernel to lawfully feed a controller a
    [proprietary] firmware before mounting the root FS.»
