How Science Got Sound Wrong

You are conflating processing with capture. The study showed that processing occurs differently from what was expected. That does not change the fact there are a given number of rods and cones.

Similar for audio, no matter how neurons may process, it does not change the shape of our ears or the construction, or the hair cells and how that will place physical limitations on what can be heard.

I am not sure what dogma you are referring to with previous posters. I have read cogent discussions of digital reproduction and hand waving in response. In Science, theories are very close to facts, they are just called theories due to the rigour to prove anything a "law" in a vast universe.

I know, lets find some flatearthers who think that mathematical analogies mistaken as facts.... somehow represent how people hear.

As they read something about human hearing and decided to force factualize that into the math they learned in some engineering application.

As god knows, since science says there are no facts and all is theory, as thing change constantly..well..

it then makes perfect sense to create a whole wall of facts around the engineering math of sound reproduction and somehow conflate this into some dogma about how humans hear....and all must be that reality....and the rest is just human fallacy, right?

As we know all the math and we know everything about human hearing, right?

Just like we knew everything about human eyesight just yesterday, right?

When the first atom bomb exploded in the desert a lot of theories suddenly became facts. Duh!

I guess when people cannot form coherent arguments against a concept that does not coincide with their world-view, they have to attack the underlying basis of how that concept was derived.  Sort of weird here, as it appears to be an attempt to use science in a very anti-science attack.

Science doesn't say there are no facts and all is theories. There are plenty of facts, theory explains them. Let go of a ball from the top of a building it falls  because of gravity that's  a fact, a theory tells us why, the current working theory of gravitation is Einstein's  general theory of relativity. 

I think you are not wrong...I apologize and wish you a good paint drying...My best to you....

I wish I was wrong sometimes ... unfortunately the God won't let me.  I've got to be right and suffer through life and face death in the face occasionally lols.  Hey, may be there's a pill for that.
