I agree with you; that is rather the point I'm making! In particular, I'm not trying to explain differences in sound quality, I'm trying to explain why I believe there should not be any differences. It's great to hear people report subjective differences in sound quality - and I sometimes do so myself - but if that's accompanied by a technical-sounding explanation then I expect it to hold up to some examination rather than simply taking it at face value.
So, for example, if someone says "firmware v10.1.0 sounds better than 10.0.5" I think: fine, I might or might not agree but I have no problem with that. If someone says "firmware v10.1.0 sounds better...because...jitter [or whatever]" I think: what's the evidence for that?
