That answer doesnt make sense logically or semantically.
Logically
If it were true then you could just get a faster Orange PI since the headers would be compatible, it wouldnt need a new accellerator card to be designed. There is a range of Orange PI's with 26 pin headers and another with 40 pin - i dont know which the NG uses at the moment, worst case scenario you'd need a ribbon cable - if there was a size/shape constraint for example.
Semantically
A new Orange Pi is a New single board computer not an accelerator.
