This has been my experience as well. I purposefully attend the project fishbowl sessions and often the project mid cycles to be able to provide real time operator feedback as future plans are discussed and retrospectives from the previous release are held.
Given a choice between attending either the Ops mid cycle or the PTG, I see far more value in the PTG, which will be held at a very similar time.

From my experience with OpenStack, feedback from operators have been
invaluable.
You can easily run things in devstack (or all-in-one deployments), but
this is completely different from running in scale. Operators do tell
you, were the pain-points are. Having a dedicated gathering without
involving actual operators/users is not that useful IMO.
