OP:
"Am I missing something truly special in the audio world if I’m all digital?"
Yes.
One reason to have the ability to play the format vinyl is that there is albums that never got released in a digital format. So if you want to hear it you need a TT. So that is a "truly special" reason. But as understandable it is mostly true for "little bit older" releases. 🥳👍
Think of some obscure local bands that gave out albums that was gone later on when digitalization were on it's way. Also recordings of historical events when they were were performed (war, royal weddings, moon, comedy and others).
It is easier to know that version you are listening to and from were it come from. And you have the possibility of compare with an earlier release that is on vinyl.
You truly miss out to nerd 🤓 into and waste a lot of time and money. It is a rabbit hole or a nice hobby depending on how you see it and what you want out of it.
