Because they are not truly objective

They are in many cases, the same old cable naysayer propoganda, whether the classic party line or wrapped up in a new shell. Dogma is dogma, no matter how dressed up.

You yourself have been exposed to a great many of the legitimate theories and speculation concerning audio cables, much of it based on physics and science, and yet, later, pretend to have never heard of any of it. You exspouse your own very limited experience with high performance audio/cables and cite simple college level physics of the most limited and basic kind as if it were some sort of manna from high on.
One can only conclude either incredible stupidity, or that you are trolling. I prefer to believe the latter option, giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Yet you do seem to be SLOWLY picking up on a few things, I know that when you first started posting, the ONLY option was 12 ga. zip cord, as it was 'perfect'. Now, you have seen that it has a relatively high inductance, and that there ARE cables that address this.
This is only ONE very basic and simplified parameter, out of dozens, that concern the sonic quality of audio cables. Perhaps after several years, and some actual first hand experience, you might even begin to understand that there is more to audio cables than just the 1st order LCR parameters.

Just as there is more to a power amp than FR, THD, S/N, and power rating, or more to a CDP than bit depth, sample(upsample) rate, FR, etc. The typical specs for modern audio gear almost NEVER paint the whole picture, and you just can not tell how it will sound based on the specs alone.
