I have no problem with people reporting that they hear differences. My problem starts when people (often marketing people as Tom has pointed out, but presumably not in your case) start positing physical explanations for these perceptions. Often their explanations don't pass the smell test. In the case at hand, your theory hasn't even risen to a level at which the faintest odor might be detected.
I object to half-baked science, be it physics, biology, psychology or statistics. If you want to stay firmly in the realm of art, then you will get no complaints from me. But you are positing physics. There should be numbers. If there is no measurement equipment capable of the required precision there is still the possibility of simulation.

Sorry you are not feeling well. Best wishes for a quick recovery.
I believe in connectors causing audible distortion based on the obvious noise and distortion that I have heard and could easily have measured had I been so inclined. In most cases it was readily cured by twisting the connectors, volume control knobs and switches that were affected. Over many decades I have repeatedly observed this effect and its cure.
If you want numbers on connectors you can find them on the Internet regarding the situation with cell phone towers. There are other articles, but these require paid subscriptions so I haven't read them. Also Google "rusty bolt effect".
