In terms of measurement points, the above graph also suggests there are only three measurement points above the 10KHz point, is that correct? Is that sufficient in your opinion for 50% of the audible spectrum?
In terms of actual music (octaves), that 10kHz-20KHz represents only about 12% of the musical notes vs 50% of the frequency range due to the logrithmic relationship between musical notes and frequencies.

I am curious as to whether others think that for measurement purposes, three data points for the top 12% of the audible spectrum based on musical notes (a bit over one octave) is likely sufficient. (Of course, at 77 y/o I can barely hear 10KHz, which means that I can hear 88% of the range of musical notes, but only 50% of the associated frequency range.)
Another thing that puzzles me is the concern - bordering on obsession - of some people regarding continuous high amplifier power into tweeters. Can tweeters really handle 200 watts of continuous power at frequencies between 10-20KHz without being destroyed? Is the concern about specs based on practical reasons - the ability of an audio system to accurately reproduce music very loudly? Or just an ethical concern parallel to advertising and selling audiophool snake oil?
I understand - and share - respect for engineering excellence with respect to lowering noise and distortion in DACs and amplifiers to well beyond audibility, but I would never rule out an amplifier for my own use just because it couldn't provide 200wpc continuous output at 10-20KHz in a "stress test."
Edit: I see that
@AudioSceptic mentioned the same concern re: frequency vs musical scales.
