It does not; Vorbis needs only lap consecutive frames, and the timing was
constructed so that the 'timestamp' of a vorbis frame actually points to
the middle of the frame data.  When you combine a starting frame with the
subsequent frame, the data you get back is from the starting timestamp
forward. Because Opus needs to preroll a larger amount, that trick wouldn't
work with Opus.
