Andre, I think you are too quick to dismiss the idea that feedback
transforms amplitude distortions into phase-smearing,

There is no reliable theoretical or measurable support for this idea.
There's no support based on reliable listening tests.

In contrast, there are zillions of examples of equipment with tons of
negative feedback that has marvelous phase accuracy, both measured and
heard. Proven theory says this is exactly as it should be.

How thoroughly does something need to be disproved to be abandoned?

Furthermore it can easily be shown to be yet another myth by the
application of mathematics !
