Thank you for all those had provided your inputs thus far!

Sorry, I'm still not sure where you are getting at. As a specialist in OE you are probably now making close to or exceeding what most HR ops/generalist people can ever make in their whole career, why is there a concern of disadvantage?
If you are asking whether you should broaden your knowledge in other areas like L&D, C&B, ER, BP etc. I can still understand, but when you are in a position where your career is higher than even the most seasoned of ops generalist, I really can't see where this is going.
Even if hypothetically you decide to move to HR operations for the fun of it, where in the world are you going to find any company to pay your current package to do ops stuff? Even if 20 years down the road HR generalist can broaden your career, are you going to take a 50% paycut in pursuit of that? If not, what is there to ask?
