Hmm. Definitions aside, how would you go about
quantifying say recognition of someone's voice ?
(works through a telephone, or when the person has a severe cold)
?

Well that's a different subject and one we really know far less about. It's
easy to measure differences in peoples' voices but the brain's proccess of
recognition is something that is still being researched.

Who's that 'we" ?

Hardly a different subject..if you can hear it (by implication:
differentiate between X & Y)
it can be measured ...

Scientific researchers and anyone who looks at thier work.

No. measuring *differences* in sound is different than understanding how the
brain recognizes voices. It's no bif deal to measure such differences and even
identify voices via measurements. How our brains do it is not so easy to figure
out.
