Let's try a reality check here.

In-shack spotting consists of real-time acceptance of
spotting assistance from one or more other operators.
It is indeed multi-op or, more accurately, multi-single.

The use of packet consists of real-time acceptance of
spotting assistance from one or more other operators.
It is multi-op or, more accurately, multi-single.

There is no difference - apart from the non-issue of the
location of the additional operators.

"Single op assisted" is a weasel way of describing
multi-single by anyone or any organisation that prefers
to ignore reality.
