Please don't put words in my mouth. I would never say that you have to be deluded or pedantic or an audiophile in order to justify lossless audio file. And I would never ever say that "audiophiles don't listen though matrix decoders". I completely accept that matrix decoding is a legitimate way to listen to music. I do it myself on occasion. But even before you throw lossy compression into play, it's worth acknowledging that Pro Logic decoding of a non-Pro Logic signal is hit-and-miss at best, which can often trip up or be generally unpleasant with many types of material.
