One of the things that made me a little twitchy is that FFmpeg replaced the very thoroughly fuzzed official Opus decoder with their own implementation that wasn't.

It's actually good to have multiple independent implementations of a decoder to find inconsistencies and bugs. In fact Mozilla sponsored the work, and Google also did indirectly through GSoC.
