So, someone who hears/listens better than you is automatically pompous and arrogant? Of course they might not hear/listen better than you...but probably they do and that is why they became critics.

"audio components are anything but electronic conduits, they have no personalities, they are not musical instruments..and assigning mythical characteristics "

Complete straw-man argument. I seriously doubt most see hifi as having personalities, being musical instruments or having mythical characteristics. Since that is probably 99% untrue we can safely say you are attacking someone who basically doesn't exist.

What is absurd is that you think because you don't hear things that others must be as limited as you.

Oh, and to a person with the right sensitivity, nearly everything does make a difference sonically.
