Is that true? Whats the official opinion?
It has been true for at least the last decade and I would bet that it
won't change.

"The debian-security/ archives contain the security updates released by
the Debian security team. It sounds interesting to everyone, but since the
security updates are sporadic, one would have to mirror it very often to
be up to date (or use push mirroring) so we do not recommend it. Debian
makes every effort to maintain the high availability of
security.debian.org instead"
You could mirror security but it's not recommended.
