One difference is that sooner or later photographers,if they are going to make claims about better and worse, have to show their work to people.

The vast majority of photos taken by amateur photographers aren't seen by anyone outside of immediate family, and the vast majority taken by professionals are for an individual client.
And when amateurs and professionals do show their work to the public, nobody ever demands proof that they can make a better photo in higher resolution through a DBT where resolution is the only variable under test and all other variables are controlled.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone demanding that photographers conduct controlled blind tests.
No, blind tests in photography. You have to stick cotton in your ears, however.
There are, of course, endless arguments about sensors and lenses. There are arguments about how lenses "draw." A lot of people think Zeiss and Leica lenses draw better than others. It seems always to be the most expensive items that have these mysterious qualities, in both photography and audio. And there is another mysterious "bokeh" which has to do with the how the out of focus parts of the photo look.
But Sony has a forthcoming 42mp camera with an maximum ISO at 102,400, It will be possible to capture hi resolution images practically in the dark; this is pure technical, measurable stuff that would have been impossible with film. (I have no connection with Sony, except I use a Sony camera; Canon and Nikon have hi-rez cameras, But Sony has the sensor technology for the present. Nikon uses a Sony sensor in their high-end camera, not sure about Canon.)
