I was actually trying to stick with the semantics as it was documented.
The documentation for this file says it'll show frequencies that are not
allowed by the current min/max settings either. To me, an OPP disable
seems similar to some frequencies "disabled" by min/max settings.

Giving preference to OPP is not a hard change to do, but it seems to go
againsts the documented semantics.

Thoughts?
