I'm sure there are skeptics for everything out there.
I'm sure there is a fairly large consensus view out there that carts and tonearms and extent of how set up properly makes all the difference in how good a vinyl setup sounds. So not much room for dispute there. Also many acknowledged technical experts who can explain exactly WHY this is so
Not so for many other more "radical" for lack of a better term or perhaps borderline concepts that some may report as well, but theoretical support for how or why is greatly lacking.
There is a big difference between a technical solution with little science or proven engineering to substantiate it and one that is well understood by many, including "experts".
The argument that science and engineering is limited so anything is possible is often used to justify. That may be true, but in of itself basically means the odds of success are limited, so proceed accordingly.
