I really don't understand how the difference in PC's ability to deliver current would affect phase issues created by electronics or component set up.

I can't begin to understand it either, but I've heard the effects. Whether it's a phase shift, I don't know, but it has certainly sounded like a phase shift.."

Phase might be the main answer as we talk of AC. My experience is that just by turning phase on the PC the "wrong" wsy both soundstage and bass weight suffers. This can easily be checked with a ohm-meter in both ends of the PC to see if it turns the phases.
Powercords can do alot more than most folks imagine. The powersupply/trafo breathes through the PC..
As in any place of the power-circuit there`s a lot of loss in stranded wires, both distortion and lack of powercapasity. Obviously a point with huge amps, but it has the same effect on other components. To reduce loss PC`s should be kept as short as possible, no extensions.
And while we talk about current; pull out every mobilephone-charger, halogen-lights or any other small trafos while listening, those cheap little trafos makes a lot of noice!
