RE: Harmonic distortion, a nice overview.

"Instead what can be taken away is: an amplifier type which distorts invisibly will sound better when cranked than an amplifier which creates distortion we are annoyed by."

Exactly. This is also basically what Cheever says as well and what I believe to be true. If the amps distortion is masked it is essentially invisible. The worst situation is if the amp distorts in a way that is laid bare to the human ear/brain hearing mechanism.
