thank you
It's actually just the nickname it's gotten from the markings on the new tablets, to tell them apart from the old, the new formulation used OP on them, rather than the OC that was used on the originals.
The new formulation to prevent abuse is proprietary and while you can find lists of the inactive ingredients, they don't actually give the details on how they are put together to accomplish this.
However, attempts to abuse it, by crushing or chewing result in its turning into a gummy substance, which retains its time released properties.
