I think these kind of blind listening tests are fundamentally flawed. For example in the graphics realm (games, video encoding, colour science, etc) all it takes is a momentary black screen between two comparison images to make it vastly more difficult to detect differences. Likewise side by side is also more difficult than swapping between two images instantly. Audio makes it impossible to do an instant swap, at best you’re getting the equivalent of a side-by-side comparison
