You were give a specific statement by one musician. You chose to dismiss it. I suggest you go to a concervatory and talk to the teachers and the music students. You will get a good idea of the situation. Or you can go to concerts and see the audience reaction to concerts that are technically perfect vs. those that have extreme musical depth and get the general sense of the audience. But unfortunately to do this requires you to be able to distinguish musical depth when it happens. And I suspect that perhaps you find this difficult, otherwise you wouldn't be taking the position that you have.
This goes across other musical genres, but I used classical music and classical musicians, because that's what I am most familiar with, among other reasons being that I was married to a classical pianist for 43 years and had quite a few discussions on this subject. These came up frequently because we lived for many years under the dark era of Seiji Ozawa at the Boston Symphony Orchestra where we had technical mastery to be sure, but little musical depth throughout most of the repertoire.
