Subtle phase differences that give out ears the (relative) height of a sound
source. They are captured by microphones too in a true stereo recording.
But the ability to sample a virtually endless number of stereophonic
(relative to listener reception) wavefronts, available to an audience
member, does not translate to a recording made from any fixed perspective.
If you accept the premise, then your conclusion is correct. However from my
knowledge and experience, I find that your premise isn't correct.
There are no "subtle phase differences" beyond about 700 Hz, at which
point the wavelength becomes too small for the perception of any phase
effects, and pure time difference takes over.
This does not agree with things I have read. Please provide source for that
information...
