You ask a good question


"Nevertheless, in essence the thinking is that if digital recording is perceived to be so transparent, why bother with another delivery format in the first place?"

Two reasons.
1.The euphonic colorations of vinyl and specific colorations of particular vinyl playback gear.
2 Better mastering that is often found on the vinyl versions of various recordings.

I don't buy into the whole accuracy philosophy. For me it's about aesthetic excellence and IME more often than not that comes with the vinyl. Accuracy and excellent sound are not synonymous. Plenty of cross over but not interchangable at all.
