There's of course this nugget: http://nypost.com/2015/01/11/do-consumers-really-care-about-digital-quality/
The thing is, they know internally at least... But when "artistic license" has been taken so far that it has become the cornerstone of the business venture, a guy like Neil Young probably doesn't have much choice than to stay the course. I suspect that for many people (probably many here), if Young comes out and admits it's more about mastering than bitrates, we'd rejoice and thank him for his honesty because *then we can really get somewhere*! However, I don't know if his company can handle the truth. And do the record companies want the truth be out that they've sucked at remastering for the last 2 decades? (Another obvious unspoken truth.)
