You personally might be willing to accept distortions of various kinds (we all make our own tradeoffs), but the point in audio design is that the equipment attempts to recreate as faithfully as possible the original sound. The fact that people are willing to accept less than outstanding audio fidelity is analogous to people being willing to eat fast food. Most people being willing to eat fast food doesn't mean that a world-class chef using the finest ingredients doesn't create a fundamentally different gustatory and nutritional experience, or that there aren't people who can discern and appreciate the difference.

I understand the analogy, but in this case I think its more like having the same world class chef getting his/her ingredients sent by the super market vs going to the market and hand picking all the freshest ingredients personally. Both are going to be so superior that personal biases are going to play more of a role than the technical differences between the results.

Plus, these are audiophile headphones not reference headphones, they aren't meant for professional use (although I'm sure they could be).
