I think the nub of your response is that people
"believe" things sound different. It's the same
mental process that have people believing in God,
the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus. They don't have a
shred of objective evidence that things sound
different, just their faith.
Let's say they *perceive* things to sound different.
OTOH lets *not* say they "perceive" things since that
then opens up all the
ambiguities and misundestandings where people use the
word 'perceive' in different ways and argue at
cross-purposes... :-)
What word would you prefer then? They have to perceive
to believe, do they not?
A little apparently much-needed Psychology 101:
There are two kinds of perceptions:
Illusory or unreliable
Veridical or reliable
Actually, four....

Different issues.
...none of them based on factual accuracy, as I perceive
it....

Obviously true for you, Keith.
Some of the rest of us are mostly interested in veridical perceptions.
Illusions are fun, but that's about it for them.
