I have an HD800 S. For argument's sake, let's imagine that I want to drive that thing at ridiculously loud volumes. Say, maximum of high power mode of an IDSD micro BL:

That would mean that it can give off a continuous power output of
about 332 mw at 300 ohms, right?
And because the maximum continuous handling capability of the HD800 S is 500 mw, it is literally impossible to damage the HD800 S with this amp, right?
What if you put all of those 332 mw in a sine wave at 20 hz? Does the "power handling capability" consider the possible damage from over-excursion of the diaphragm?
