    No, I don't think so actually. I think your method proves that the assumption is right.

    The volume of the upper 'triangle' is always going to be half the volume of a cylinder with the same height, right?. How is this the same as our assumption?

    Well why did they say that the line always goes through the midpoint? Visually? If so then I agree with you it's not the same assumption.
