I tend think both can contribute to that .
And then also , even as technical much of recording is, in the end much is still personal preference and a number of the descriptive terms are very much subject to personal perspective.
Warm - Glue - Sparkle etc.etc.
Dealing with just myself as a client and having a pretty good hardware Reverb, and almost always using reverb more as ambience than effect . My SOP is to have all my different instruments sending into a single parallel Aux reverb track into that HW reverb.
And so the theory is hopefully all the instruments should sound like they are in the same space.
For separation (which I tend to think of in left to right) I use mostly panning and then also possible some EQ
For moving things forward or backward in the space (but still in the same overall space =reverb ) is where I use compression and usually only have the lead vocal move a slight bit forward ....
