Sorry but I beg to differ ...
... look at the plotted frequency response rather than than the
tabulated specs.

Yes, and I was exagerating for effect, but all the same I would argue
that a lot of that acceptance
resulted from historic technological limits and the limits (at that
time) of psychoacoustics (not that we are so much further now,
although Functional NMR is beginning to give greater insights into our
response to sonic events) ...

I think that we are in serious agreement [even if we nit pick on a few
details  :-)]!
