"To those guys who listen to peanut sized speakers 1-2 metres away and deny that imaging, tonal accuracy,image height, depth and width matter"Do "those guys" really exist?
And for what it's worth in my experiences with live classical music, imaging, image height, depth and width matter only so much as they are perceived in the listening position. How those things are perceived in a stereo listening session is absolutely related to playback acoustical environment as well as recording venue including microphone placement.
Given the infinite configurations of recording venues + microphone placements and playback environments it would seem someone would have to be very lucky to get accurate reproduction of those spacial attributes. Most certainly some sense of imagine and scale will come through but comments on it have more to do with external forces than actual audio performance.
