Those potential other factors are what I’m trying to pinpoint. Let’s say better bass response, if one says “My Nordost USB cable has more bass over the AmazonBasics USB, which sounded thin.”, that means the loudness of the bass was different. Data is transmitted in binary packets and hopefully in discrete time (clock sync, or hopefully reclocked to better remove jitter), so for one data cable to have less bass, that means the data has to have been altered, as it’s not like in analog interconnects where simply using a different gauge can cause measurable differences.
I’m no electrical engineer (I , so I could be wrong.
