A properly designed digital system does not introduce RF noise into the audio signal. Furthermore, a defective system does not constitute a problem with digital.
I think you're grasping at straws for an argument that will allow you to bypass opening your ears and hearing for yourself the accuracy of a quality digital recorder copying an analog source. When you do that, you'll find that digital can sound just as analog as vinyl or analog tape.
If record companies wanted CDs to sound like vinyl, all they would have to do is cut a master lacquer as their source for the digital master. Peter Ledermann of Soundsmith used to cut playable master lacquers and sell them for $100. I heard one and it sounded better than vinyl with a virtually noiseless surface. If you want analog sounding digital, this is all it would take. However, you would be stuck with the sound of the particular vinyl front-end used to play the master lacquer.
