Operators and voiced users have very different meanings on IRC, and noone should be a permanent +o without a very good reason (cf. also [1]). What's the problem with having only +v? If you want to contact someone (approver, maintainer) with knowledge in a certain area you still need to figure out who those people are exactly, that is, either you ask around or consult some wiki page about that... Or are you proposing that only maintainers/infra admins/etc. should moderate the channel?
