is my reasoning for enantiomers/meso compounds correct?

A meso compound is optically inactive due to internal compensation.
The presence of chiral carbon is neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for optical activity, since optical activity may be present in molecules with no chiral atom and since molecules with two or more chiral carbon atoms are superimposable on their mirror images and hence inactive.

⭕ Meso compounds are those compounds which are optically inactive due to their differing in configurations. A meso compound is archiral that's why they can't be enantiomers.
Because enantiomers are compounds which are optically active and while the meso compounds are always optically inactive.
