As of 2021, this is not true for the most popular public-key algorithms, which can be efficiently broken by a sufficiently strong quantum computer.

Maybe you missed the point. If quantum computing may become a threat to bitcoin, they will change from ECDSA to a post-quantum way of doing keys.
Will quantum computing decades from now be able to crack ECDSA, which is already decades old today? Probably.
Will the computer savvy folks working on the tech of a 1+ trillion dollar market cap asset forget to switch to a "post-quantum" algo for keys, which already exists? No.
Checkmate. And thanks for playing.
