The world of magic, as in stage magic, provides a useful context for this debate. I have personally known prominent stage magicians (among them the late Doug Henning). That world revolves around illusion -- "doing" things that really just can' be done. It's skilled artifice, the creation of false reality. The difference between the audience in that world and the audience for our friends the audiophile-magicians, is that no one actually believes the former are doing the things they pretend to be doing. No pretty ladies actually sawed in half. The audiophile-magicians, though, want us to believe that they really have reduced jitter to inaudible levels.
