Sounds like many others have decided for you that it should be removed ::-).

Though I'm not real up on these technical terms for the algorithms, it
certainly sounds like these things would be called part of the psyco
acoustic model.

Hmmm, I'm not familiar with this --nspsytune switch to lame.  Trying it
doubles my encoding time and seems to introduce more noise (though I just
spent a bunch of hours seeing They Might Be Giants... so ears prolly
aren't in such great shape ::-).  I suspect this too is legacy?
