I don't. That's not what this is about. > If they claim that their cable is superb compared to > others, why can't I ask them to proof it with a valid test. The key word here is "valid".

The real world is not quite so nice and ordered as software tends to be and therefore is not only harder to measure and quantify, but it is also not easy to know what to measure. Human ears, or more accurately, the human hearing system is an amazing piece of kit and is capable of doing things computers can only dream of. That is why I am sceptical about the "we can measure more than we can hear" approach. Don't get me wrong - I'm not a card-carrying audiophile nut who believes in snake-oil, but I don't think the reality of the matter is as clear-cut as engineers like yourself seem to think.
