That is a correct reading of the Opus spec as of Opus-02 and later.  Prior
to Opus-02, the spec also described a packet mode that could contain
frames of different types, allowing arbitrary aggregation.  I believe it
was removed because the authors expected that it would be rarely used, and
removing it allowed them to improve the efficiency of more common cases.
