I think they are ok too.  DWARF doesn't provide these terms exactly, but
pretty close, e.g.:

    For DW_OP_call2 and DW_OP_call4, the operand is the 2- or 4-byte
    unsigned offset, respectively, of a debugging information entry in the
    current compilation unit.

and

    The operand is used as the offset of a debugging information entry
    in a .debug_info or .debug_types section
