Somehow yes, but I think because this '...' thing introduced the time that syntactic sugar came up to JS so they tend to keep it as just helper syntax, some developers don't like it to be called as an operator because of other programming languages same debate.(some folks in this way would say one language has got more operators to another...:-))
