What are we objectivists missing?

I have been following (with much amusement) various threads about cables and tweaks where some claim "game changing improvements" and other claim "no difference".  My take is that if you can hear a difference, there must be some difference.  If a device or cable or whatever measures exactly the same it should sound exactly the same.  So what are your opinions on what those differences might be and what are we NOT measuring that would define those differences?

"if you can hear a difference, there must be some difference"

The above statement misses one crucial point.  It is the difference between what you ACTUALLY hear and what you THINK you hear.  99% of the audiophile world falls into the latter category.  As for the the other 1%, those descended from the monsters from the movie "A Quiet Place" :-)
