Possibly I don't understand all of the technical considerations, but 
doesn't what you say make sense from a theoretical standpoint anyway?  
An analog system is kind of the equivalent of infinite sampling and 
processing.  I would expect there to be SOME less-than-perfect effect of 
sampling a weak signal in the presence of spiky noise with any realistic 
sampling rates.
