So it boils down to "we can measure it but we don't know if we can hear it"? Well we can forget about ever coming to a conclusion since it's impossible to perform an ABX test of an unbroken in headphone vs a broken in headphone. Although we could come close by, say, measuring the impulse response of the unbroken in headphone, the broken in headphone, then convolve the unbroken in impulse response over the broken in impulse response (uh, I don't know the correct terms to use here) to simulate the sound of the unbroken in phones on the broken in phones then see if people can ABX between them. Any change in frequency response is probably the most important thing to simulate.
So in other-words both sides (the ones who think burn in exists, and the ones who don't) are both subjective and "not" objective". No one wins here. Just stick to your belief and enjoy your music. No one will be convincing me otherwise anyways.
