You clearly haven't heard of statistics...think about it or read about it and it will perhaps come to you eventually how you can get some useful data out of individual preferences.
As to the industry, they provide the measurements they kind of have to, not the ones that would be useful (if fitted with the proper model). They publish THD and maybe IMD...almost no one provides a detailed FFT and model fitting. Aries Cerat provides the level of H2 and H3 at a given power...but that is an exception rather than the rule and the assumption they make is that there is an exponential decay in the harmonics with increasing harmonic order.
