To paraphrase EKR, "I'm derf and I approve this message" (sorry, it is election season in the US).

The only downside I can see is if users want to upload recorded audio files
to Web sites that don't support Opus but do support AAC. Is that likely to
be an issue?

If so, we can probably make a short list of the most important sites and reach out to them about adding Opus support. Since AFAIK, most of them use one of the open-source media frameworks (FFmpeg, libav, gstreamer) for content ingestion, and those all support Opus, this should be straightforward to do. For anyone who doesn't use one of those frameworks, we have simple, stand-alone tools.
