I'd love to believe in the possible, in improvement, but as usual it reads like a bunch of way out of touch musicians huffing their own flatulence with indistinct, unimportant nonsense.

The novelty here is that this is an analog recording, so trying to judge how good it is requires astronomically more effort. We can't just build incredibly high precision analog-to-digital systems & encodings, compare them to similar lossless flac, & confirm the fidelity: we need to go physically model this medium & it's capabilities to assess it's real potential. Making something which is hard to judge, to make your claims unassailable: power move.
