DAC improvements slowing down?

24/192 optical in
24/96 USB

It seems like those two figures would be the highest values most supposedly audiophiles need to have capable.

Beyond that how are DACs going to be a game changer? Most sources are regular CDs and streaming audio, no SACD for 99% of us supposedly audiophiles.

I read that people recommend using an external DAC as the technology is constantly improving but have we hit the point of diminishing returns or is there a good argument for using an External DAC still?

so what if your like me? Over sixty with a LARGE RECORD and CD collection who is not interested in yet another non worldwide standard of source and not interested in streaming?
How important is my Dac now just to listen to my regular and MFSL gold cd's?
Please give serious answers! thanks, azjake
