"I think EE has very limited understanding of why things work and uses a fundamentally unscientific "good enough" perspective on circuits, parts, wire, and even what is safe." TBG

Engineers are by definition not scientists. An enlightened understanding of "good enough" is at the heart of good engineering. Engineers design fantastic, fascinating, shiny devises that actually work.

If the goal of cable design is no audible contribution by the cable, then all cables should sound the same , by design.

If there is a audible difference between two cables, A & B, then either A is no good, B is no good or neither A nor B is good. The better cables get, then the more alike they should sound.
