The cnances of being present at the recording are pretty remote for the vast majority of consumers of commercial recordings.
Over time, however, I find that the ability to judge what is realistic is not that difficult.
"Accurate" has no meaning when the result sounds like live, unamplified music as I have previously experienced countless times before.
