That's often true, but not always. Lied singers can often be quite successful with relatively small voices. And sometimes, a singer of Lieder tries to make a leap to operatic singing, and it ends in disaster. I think of the famous Conrad L. Osborne review of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (known for his singing of Lieder) attempting to sing one of the heavy Wagnerian roles. He just didn't have sufficient voice for it, and, as Osborne reported, attempted to compensate "by blowing additional tone out of his ears" (!) with unfortunate results. ;-)
