IMO, point is that actual standard targets for speakers are only "static" in that they don't objectivate the dynamic behaviour. We don't know for sure yet if a subjective response curve wouldn't be the translation of a particular frequency dependent variation of the dynamic behaviour. Or if this correlates with a somewhat lifeless character, as quoted before.
One would be very surprised how a multiband compressor can make a bass shy record sound right and impactful just by introducing some specific bass compression (repeat compression) and a delicate increase of bass (please read Bob Katz's 'Mastering Audio' to convince yourself). Or by the influence of a master bus compressor to the sound (often used during mastering process).
You can immediately see the use of the latter on the waveform of a music file.
Long story short, there are some measurements lacking to correlate what we hear with what is measured.
And that is not yet (to my knowledge) covered by measurements, so we need to find additional measurements.
