Say, yes.

The question is why tie the op-version to the release number? That
mental model needs to break IMO.

With current options like,
https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Upgrade-Guide/op_version/ it is
easier to determine the op-version of the cluster and what it should be,
and hence this need not be tied to the gluster release version.

Thoughts?
