If a person posts about cables, and wanting to know about an option for a cable, say a Sennheiser after market option, is it, or is it not, a complete thread crap / troll post to interject that cables don't matter?

No, it is not a thread crap. It entirely depends on the way it's done. Why? Because it is a fact that some people think they don't matter, just as it is a fact that some people do think they matter.
Is it a thread crap when some OP starts a thread about one headphone, and how it was an upgrade to another can, then someone comes in and completely states that it is a complete downgrade from that can? No, it is a differing opinion, and it happens every single day.
The difference here is that it occurs more often(which I can understand would be annoying for a pro-cable person) AND that people are waayyyyyy to emotional about it. Why are they too emotional? Well I can see why pro-cable people would be, when the other side of the argument lables then as imaginative and being ripped off, as well as the fact that it happens so often due to the fact that cables *do* come in lowest on the totem pole in regards to the rest of the system. This leads to some being strongly, strongly defensiveness.
And people on the anti-cable side of things are also sort of tired of being labeled "noobs" for not hearing the difference..or being told that they haven't spent enough money to hear it, and being told they they shouldn't talk about it. This leads to some being strongly aggressive in posting their view.
But stating it in a normal way is not a thread crap, it is a relevant opinion. It becomes a thread crap, when the same person is doing it over and over in a rude, overbearing and annoying way(i.e trolling).
