Corrections needed for Min FL on STAR?

Hello aviation buffs,

I do apologize in advance if this is the wrong section to ask. I was doing some research about altimetry and could not work this one out and it annoys me massively.

Here goes:

On certain STARs you might find Min FL. These have to be adhered to obviously. However I was wondering about the need to correct these for non standard condition i.e. MSL pressure < 1013 and temp < ISA.

I would say they need to be corrected (especially the ones involving high terrain) but couldn't figure out the reasoning.

Many thanks in advance and please bear with me.
