The science is only a guide. Sound, and fidelity which is a concept
that seems to have escaped into the ether these days, is entirely
subjective. Being subjective, what may sound good to you will not
sound good to me.

I take your point but you go too far in that it's not "entirely
subjective". 20% distortion will sound less accurate than .01%. As an
electric guitar player I understand that some kinds of distortion are
more pleasing than others in sound creation but you weren't discussing
violins or guitar amps. In sound reproduction accuracy is the goal.
Todays instruments can measure the audible spectrum well beyond what
human ears can discern in amplitude, frequency, or phase.
