This is why I instead opt to carry scrolls of damn near every spell 8th level or lower.
It’s a little bootleg compared to a real Wish, but in average circumstances I can give Batman a run for his money on being prepared for literally any eventuality.
RAW, yeah, you’re right unfortunately. Our DM lets us make the DC check to cast a non-class scroll just like you’d make if you cast one too high level for you. Web searching tells me this is a popular homebrew rule.
I may be making him regret that decision somewhat.

Isn’t that killing the thief rogue subclass’s use magic device ability?
Little bit yeah. UMD is quite a bit more versatile than this though, ours is restricted to scrolls and requires a spellcaster check.
