Yeah, I get that. I'm pretty used to tuning out people's claims about [insert subject of your choosing] on the internet. Life's a little easier that way.

Epistemologically the question of whether there exist any immeasurable auditory phenomena is beside the point, which really hinges on the existence of qualia, which are real but not quantifiable, are pivotal to why we even care about this stuff in the first place, and can be communicated to...
