RE: Low plate resistance vs. reputation for 'good tone".

Tre', That was sort of my point. I know intellectually that ECC99, 5687, 7119, etc, should make a "better" driver stage, on paper for sure, but like you I am very fond of 6SN7 and have found it hard to get around its mystique. (In fact, I started acquiring 7119 and 5687 several years ago with the facts in mind, but I have never put the tubes to use. Truth be told, I have a couple of 6900s as well.) Knowing that you and others here do like those tubes as drivers in actual practice is helpful.
