not necessarily, there were and still are OMZs that are v4 without the optional amp. v4 spec means it has the processor removed. as i recall Ori didn't call any of his previous OMZs any version, just OMZ but now that he removed the processor he considers it significant enough that he should differentiate

I did! I had mine updated from whatever to v4 spec. The change in sound is not huge as in it still sounds like an OMZ but there is a noise/haze that is lifted. It is the digital processor and Ori was right in thinking that it introduced noise into the chain. It's hard to explain, but when it's no longer there you notice the lowered noise floor and extra dynamics
