Cutting a lacquer and pressing a vinyl record causes losses and those losses have to be compensated for. (I'm not referring to the RIAA curve, all records require this)
Originally this was the ONLY job of the mastering engineer, not sweetening.
Now to the issue of "professional mastering engineer for further sweetening".
Your point it taken but the fact is even the best of the best (producers, engineers, mixers) send their best efforts to a mastering engineer for further sweetening without having any problem "admitting that they basically don't really know what they're doing".(see what I did there?) :-)
As to the rest of it, in the 60's the instruments on most hit records were not played by the band but by "The Wrecking Crew".
On almost any hit song you can think of (I'm exaggerating here) with a piano, that piano was played by Leon Russell. All those great bass lines.....Carol Kaye.....etc.....
To some extent artists still do this. They have a touring band and a separate studio/recording band.
I guess we each draw the line somewhere.
I think you have a good handle on the subject now.
