RE: Actually, there is science

You could probably "fix" those inner groove problems by tweaking the alignment. For example, the much maligned Stevenson algorithm will produce a null point within or near to the innermost grooves. (I own a few vintage Japanese tonearms that were designed for Stevenson, and with those, the innermost grooves often produce the "smoothest" sound.) But this is not to dispute the obvious point that a longer tonearm will give a flatter arc across the LP surface with commensurately less tracking error, on average.
