" The limitation in one dimension (noise or analog distortion) does not justify a limitation in another dimension."
They may not always be the same point on the graph but I would argue that noise level in a transmitted signal must always set a practical limit for making distortion measurements. And every signal has noise.
My question isn't whether to use dither or not. I'll always follow he recipes DSP experts suggest since I can't be bothered to think about that stuff.
It is regarding the practical limits of detecting it's benefit. I don't know at what level a computer could detect distortion on a signal
