I would certainly think Audacious is better for audio.

But is there a
quantitative way to check the quality? If there is, it could cut a lot
of bullshit.

The real work is done in the hardware, DAC chips generating real
intelligible sound.  Software can manipulate the sound, of course, but
it's not needed to reproduce the basic recording.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
