FR and distortion are all that matter.

Technicalities do not actually exist in the "real" world. they are only the brain's subjective interpretation of the FR. They can and will vary from person to person. Ie, they are not quantifiable, just like other aspects of our brain and personal preference.

Resolution, which is part of the "technicalities" umbrella, will vary from person to person on what part of the FR improves/decreaces the sense of it. For example, elevated treble makes headphones sound "low resolution" to me. That may not be the case for everyone.

And, a +15 DB Chu would make me gouge my ears out..

The problem is that since no one has yet figured out how to do a frequency sweep measured at my eardrum, measured FR also doesn't exist in the "real" world.
