One does desire a perfect filter (at least this one does!). To say you don't need a perfect filter requires you to prove that no one could ever hear the difference. Else you move into the whole realm of perceptual encoding and masking, and the idea that most people can't hear a difference. The slippery slope that seperates MP3's from lossless formats...
The point I was trying to make is that it's not simply a question of frequency responce. There are other factors to consider in the 16/44 24/96 debate.
