To me I would say we refine established science because we have found a theory that has better predictive power. It can take just one paper (or book) or one public demonstration.
I’ve cited to the streetlight effect myself in this forum. My solution was to test speakers and headphones. @amirm (independent of my musings I’m sure) is looking into that.
As to what’s important, independent of difficulty—safety issues when they come up, disseminating accurate and educational knowledge, influencing against harmful profit-driven distortions in the marketplace, and achieving better audio by hitting the weakest links in the chain, two of which are speakers and headphones.
Another area where we could become stronger is people highly expert in the recording to mixing to mastering side of the chain. Without them, we are missing out on a lot of useful, fascinating, interesting and fun content and perspective. Audio is largely the act of consuming the fruits of their efforts (and even more so the efforts of the musicians themselves).
Edited for brevity, aimed at no one in particular, hopefully responsive to the discussion at hand, my two cents, IMHO, & etc.
