Default Louder _ISN'T_ Better (With Lossy)

Another important quote from the docs:

Please note that I'm not a recording engineer or an electrical engineer, so
my signal processing theory may be off. I'd be glad to hear from any signal
processing wizards if I've made faulty assumptions regarding signal power,
perceived volume, or any of that fun signal theory stuff.

This is probably the reason why some audio terms, as used by the author,
isn't used the way we're used to.

It is also a good hint that the reader of those docs should not take the
docs as a source for knowledge about terms used for audio/signal
processing.



A-hah! I see that I'm not the only one who appears to believe that there's a
little 'voodoo' going on here. ;-)

It's kinda funny, the first paragraph that you qouted (I didn't repeat it here)
from the document, is exactly where I stopped reading it, came back and
stated that I didn't quite buy the terminology.
