You're entirely correct on this:

"some people will probably never really want to understand that all these things in the chain do matter".

It's some kind of mental block, more than anything else. After they convince themselves that their source is "good enough", the only way they see to improve sound is to go on a merry-go-round of swapping DACs. Of course, without ever realizing that they have no chance of even coming close to a full potential of any of those DACs.

It's the same as with some people endlessly swapping speakers, while keeping their mass-market POS receivers, or some vanishing THD solid-state wonder-amps from 80's.
