I however I believe "psychoacoustic" phenomenon are not magic.
It is an area for further research to want contributes to soundstage find measurements that are relevant which is what I originally said above.

No one is talking about magic...not sure why you keep using that word.
My point is that even your vaunted "perfect" DACs have sonic flaws and just taking the numbers at face value does not lead to sonically "invisible" gear that "only shows what's on the recording".
I'm not buying that soundstage is beyond explanation. If a group of people agree, based on subjective impressions, that a given component has a shallow soundstage should we search for some objective way of measuring this?
IMO, yes.
The measurement may be direct , (in the way we can measure harmonic distortion), or it many be indirect in that it is correlated with some direct measurement or measurement.
E.g. We can't measure perceived "warmth", "fullness", "musicality" directly but we know these subjective impressions are correlated with moderately high 2nd/3rd order harmonic distortion.
