I don't have "perfect pitch", but do have extensive music experience if that matters....

Single tone, single voice, or an orchestra....  50Hz off freq. is enough to make me want to drill holes in my head.  I can easily distinguish below 10 hz, and sometimes 5 Hz.... and my ears are damaged from years of rotary-wing flight/maintenance, small (and larger) arms reports.

That said...when using Lo/High/Shift/Width, the 50Hz resolution is being used in a "relief from distractor" mode, so it is less of an issue, but there HAVE been times that I wished for a slightly finer resolution.

On SSB a change of 50Hz bandwidth is usually insignificant.
Those who are blessed with perfect pitch may differ when listening to a single tone, but for communications effectiveness, I just don't see the point.
