It literally does nothing.
Whereas like within audio, if you change something,
Electrical properties are different unless the, you know, unless the thing, the things somehow truly are identical.
So we kill the conditions for placebo right out of the gate.
And then the next thing about that is like, well, okay, even if you think that someone is hearing a difference between things because of the placebo effect or something like it, well, that's a hypothesis, right?
Right.
Maybe something like that is the reason.
But there are those electrical differences which have been published.
They can be measured.
It's like we've known for 100 years that silver and copper conduct electricity differently, right?
So is it an imagined difference?
Is it all in the person's head or is it just they really are hearing the downstream consequences of those different electrical properties?
We don't know.
To claim placebo is a hypothesis.
We would have to say, you know, like we would have to design a study that shows that, okay, even when everything really truly is identical, people still keep hearing B different than A.
even though there's no electrical, that would be something more like a hypothesis or a placebo effect.
But again, that would have to be demonstrated.
The problem with the use of placebo in the audio hobby system
so far is that there is just there's no weight to it there's no evidentiary backing that the perceived difference is because of a placebo effect yeah it's a hypothesis and so it just it gets used as
it's called a thought terminating cliche.
