For some years (decades in fact) I have persistently kept asking for
detailed evidence on various audio matters. This is to help decide what
the
reality of these situations might be. Alas, all too often I get in
response
all kinds of reactions and re-statements of opinions/conclusions, but
with
little in the way of detailed assessable evidence. All too often the
reaction seems to be defensive as if I am trying to "trip people up"
and "prove them wrong".

He then went on to say:
It would be nice if people who designed/made/sold equipment were
willing to
help. But I appreciate that you can't be bothered.

Now, it should be obvious to anyone with the slightest emotional
intelligence would see that Jim is playing the game "I'm just a good
guy asking for proof" and then turning round and attacking anyone who
doesn't give it to him. This sort of hypocrisy has been going on for
decades. As I said before several times, it won't stop because Jim
doesn't understand it and has no intention of stopping it. Maenwhile it
just annoys people.

I think you may be missinterpreting Jim's intentions here. What may be
frustrating Jim is that people propose scenarios that they will argue for
using intangibles, and will not make any attempt to provide something
tangible to support their arguements. This does tend to cause some level of
frustration in those who have knowledge anad experience, and are use to
working with facts.
