Looking at just measurements can't give you the complete picture. They might give you a good hint on what sound signature something may have but still. For example I can't see Rin's measurements giving information on how it handles square waves as Innerfidelity does with 30 Hz and 300 Hz. Looking at the Etymotic ER4PT frequency response one might think that it looks perfect in regard to bass - but when you see the 30 Hz / 300 Hz square waves you get another picture.
Measurements can't always provide information on the quality of the sound - how is the bass like? is it boomy, is it tight, is it punchy, how is it in regards to mids/treble? Same goes with mids and treble. Is some parts of the sound much more elevated / or laid back than others that the balance might be totally off?
One cannot always want more of something that is missing. Sometimes designers tone down a frequency range on purpose because it might distort at some frequencies which is not good. You don't want to elevate the bad parts as it will be a disaster distortion wise and on the total enjoyment of sound.
There are many parts in the design that has to work in symbiose, this is probably the hardest part in designing. Why would Hifiman choose an odd value of 8.5mm as driver size, when many use 9mm (GR07 MkII uses 11mm)? I don't think this is a coincidence, something that has been randomly chosen, but it surely has a purpose. Maybe to keep distortion down or speed wise - who knows. I believe a lot of research has been made and it shows on how it sounds in the case with RE-400. This is the entry level of the new RE-line so they can't give it their absolute best at first maybe, but they set the standard so high it might be a little harder to justify the big price jump to the next model (but I do believe it can be done). There was also talk about a third model. Something in between would be interesting - they can do lots of things with the new driver, it is very capable imo.
