Guess not.
I have never claimed to be an expert. And I certainly don't believe posting on an internet forum makes me any smarter about any given subject. I have attempted to make it clear that I am just trying to understand the difference philosophies concerning the treatment of video and audio in the world of high-definition.
I have been repeatedly asking questions about why lossless audio shouldn't be the standard for all Blu-ray audio presentations to ensure that the highest resolution audio is reaching the consumer in the best manner possible--whether they have a high-end system or not. And since close attention to video seems to be geared towards satisfying even those with the best of home gear, why wouldn't the audiophiles in the home market get the same consideration?
In RAH's last video example, the print was digitally manipulated before reaching the home viewer on a high-def format. I certainly see that such a protocol would be preferable rather than transferring a 480 image onto a 1080p disc so that the squibs weren't seen.
But it would thusly seem to me that in a similar vein, all audio inconsistencies would be cleaned up (in whatever manner seemed appropriate by those doing the work) so that they would best represent what the filmmakers would want us to hear and then presented on blu in a lossless format.
