You understood it perfectly.  My suggestion would be to skim through the 
code of mid_reg_aor_event() 
<https://github.com/OpenSIPS/opensips/blob/master/modules/mid_registrar/ulcb.c#L249> 
internal callback (it's pretty straight-forward), to get an idea of the 
DEBUG logging it can do, as well as "OK" code paths and "NOT OK" code paths.

Once you know what to look for, try to put OpenSIPS in debug mode 
("opensips-cli -x mi log_level 4") and follow with the DEBUG logs when 
the AoR is deleted by the timer process.  Let's see what it prints!  Of 
course, you should put it back to normal logging ASAP afterwards.

Best regards,
