Yes, two reasons actually. One, because the Ogg spec allows for specifying the exact number of samples in the stream. MP3 does not have an official way to specify the number of samples (there are unofficial ways).
Two, because the Ogg player has a native loop capability that allows us to seamlessly loop at the exact sample boundary. OpenCore does not support seamless loops, we have to explicitly seek to the beginning of the file in loop mode. Thus any streams that are rendered by OpenCore (i.e. everything but Ogg and MIDI) will have gaps.
