Thank you, @GordonS! I will go read up about β-arrestin.

If it is scheduled, does that increase the chance of a safe(r) opioid replacement being developed?

And can you kindly point me to some text books/journals or introductory chemistry in order to understand these interactions at a fundamental level?

I should add that I'm not a chemist, I just have a keen, self-vested interest in analgesic substances.
