I think the general trend also is On the contrary, things like AGC and noise suppression are independent of _any_ codec (at least they are in the WebRTC stack Google open-sourced). Opus implements a few more things internally, but there's no reason in principle why those things couldn't be done outside the codec as well. The point is that this switch is the difference between, "Please actively distort the input I give you to make it sound 'better'," vs. "Please preserve the original input as closely as possible," and that semantic has little to do with the actual codec.
