Et Al;
 What this discussion is pointing out is that wet ware has capabilities that 
hard ware does not and vice versa.  Wet ware has an infinite amount of 
perceptual ability within its operational range, wheras hard ware has a 
finite capability. Wet ware is variable with each user , hardware works the 
same for everyone.

  The difficulty arising with even the most accurate analytical hardware is 
that wet ware percieves sound differently. Sounds that are "mathmatically", 
or even "beat rate", correct are not needfully the sounds that are the 'best' 
as sought for.

  I love my SAT, but I argue with it all the time. Having a like device that 
could "accurately" display timely "beat rate" data would likely create more 
arguments between me and device :-)  Still, I am enjoying the discussion and 
learning.
My view.
