The problem is that the language you used (which is the standard
language of the audio reviewer) is meaningless - and deliberately so.
The point is that you can't actually mount an argument against
something that has no meaning - it is like trying t fight shadows.
Obviously I don't know if you are doing that deliberately (trolling)
or have just subconsciously absorbed the vocabulary. Either way it
isn't a helpful way to proceed.
