That's very different.  In the case of D-to-A conversion, you are
essentially decoding something that was encoded using the same process
in the first place.  And I'll also argue that an analog waveform is not
"data"...

I can understand what you're trying to say, but I disagree with it. 
It's still just an estimate of the original wave, with data points
"guestimated" based on the original sample.

Well, no...that wound be 100x synchronous oversampling. ;-)
