I don't believe that accuracy is a moving target. It is an unattainable target, although an excellent goal. If it appears moving, it is because each time we attempt to corral it we catch only a partial glimpse of the situation, limited by the particular circumstances of our observations, be they subjective or objective.
Too many times have I compared components (or alternate versions of a recording) and concluded they sounded "the same" only to discover upon further listening that there was a distinct and repeatable difference. The same thing happens with purely objective measurements. With a new test or new test equipment two devices that had previously measured identically can measure differently.
There is a deep truth behind all of this and it goes far beyond the reproduction of music through the use of audio technology.
