Yes, RenderTheme hardcodes the interval to 0.5.

This is not a perfect way to disable blinking. The value is in milliseconds, and equals ~27 hours. So after this period, the cursor will disappear.

>    defaults write -g CursorBlink -string 0

This is a preference of Terminal.app that should have no effect on other applications.
