You are making assumptions - that valve amps are the *only* way to
create deliberate distortion^H^H^H sound effects. I disagree with the
assumption and consequently with the conclusion... You couldn't create
even-order distortions on top of those 0.01%? The most major downside
seems to be the aesthetics compared with a glowing bump of 1920
technology that looks cool at night...
