This argument is about the ridiculous concept btought forth, that
tube guitar amps and tube audio amps are, and sound, the same.

That would be a straw man that you created, Yustabe.

no, way back when, it was
offered that they were the same.

Nope, it was offered that the distortion *mechanisms* are the same.
They are.

Just like various cars have the same propulsion 'mechanisms', yet
they are different from each other, have different performances, and
have different 'feels'.

Yes, but I'm sure we could all characterize the general differences between
cars with conventional steam engines (metaphor for vinylism and tubism) and
high performance modern engines (metaphor for good solid state and digital).
