RE: A Modest proposal

Yes, that is the point in fact (not wanting to directly evoke the dreaded hifi B word).
An example of how you can only hear reality, when your ears alone are used as the input. Sight as well as prior knowledge are unavoidably woven into our hearing perception, without our knowledge as that is our only frame of reference.

If one were approaching the issue from the perceptual science point of view, this mechanism would apply to just about every sighted comparison wouldn't it.
