The next domino of logic to fall in that chain of mulled over aspects, is that:
Those who don’t understand or value those differences either can’t hear it, can’t grok it, or are indulging in their inbuilt capacity to fill in, or can’t separate the mechanism out (like some can) and actually hear the new sound, the new accent, the new micro differences. Ie, they literally are not listening. Literally.
That does not mean you can’t get along and enjoy music, though. It just means they hear differently, and are wired differently.
And if you hear those micro differences, then they’re valid to you, even in the face of those who say otherwise.
If they say otherwise, they probably don’t know what they are talking about.
If they did know, their argument would disappear.
But wait, there’s more!
Your ear/brain’s next trick: Learning to separate/differentiate - signal from noise.
