I think a number of folks

are not aware that the original Redbook standard was not determined by ideal circumstances - rather it was backed into based upon the data storage limits of the 80s media.

Ok, you've got a 700 megabyte budget to spend and marketing has determined play length of 74 minutes. Arrive at the best compromise of word size and sample rate. Any musical frequencies produced past 22k (and there are plenty of instruments that create such) must be completely removed or they shall show up as 100% distortion. Whether or not we "hear" them is irrelevant.
