WRONG !!!
Truth is TRUTH
No matter where found or from whom
TRUTH is an absolute
If not absolute then it is not TRUTH
Science nor anyone owns truth
Science has been wrong many many times
Each time they had a "logical" stand
Science is blind leading the blind
Sometimes they eventually get it right
Mostly they have bad guesses
that they proclaim as truth

"single malt scotch?"
"Actually I stopped drinking 35 years ago."
Maybe that's my problem! But all things considered, if it comes to a choice between the single malt scotch or being able to hear the breaking-in of solder joints, I'll settle for the single malt!!!

Except that nobody in the professional electronics industry represented by the IEEE is practicing what you say, not even showing any remote interest.
More of what they are not doing
rather than what they are doing.
No interest is the thing.
No interest in finding a way.
No interest in spending the money.

Possibly because they're all old and can't hear well like a teenager can when I first got into audio. What financial gain is there if many people cannot hear it or appreciate the difference. Hence the proliferation of solid state, digital, MP3, etc.I will say it again, don't let someone older than you tell you what you can't hear.

What would we gain from this?
There are many more things that need attention, things that actually have tangible effects.
Heck I would even give Drlowmu some potential credit with his wild bypassing escapades, but this is out there.
Much bigger effects come from Placebo or Sensory Adaptation.
Slight variations in the way we hear at a given point of time depending on the environmental conditions leading up to that point in time.
Other senses we have that also adapt, are things like touch and smell.
That is why you are able to slowly slip into a hot bath, or why the presence of perfume seems to fade over time.
So in summary, swapping a part like an output transformer could quite possibly sound like it's breaking in, but only if the design parameters are substantially different enough, which they usually are when somebody is "upgrading". (Or changing some other part that is measurably and significantly different.)
However, you can't really account for that, quite often you have to make your selection based off of parameters ahead of time and fingers crossed benefit from the selection after purchase.
