“Listening tests, primarily designed by and for western-european white men, and using the music they liked, were used to refine the encoder.” Not to be oversensitive, but would it be okay to say something like this if Fraunhofer IIS were in... Japan or something, and they happened to find a lot of Japanese people who liked Japanese music for listening tests? “Listening tests, primarily designed by and for east-asian yellow men, and using the music they liked, were used to refine the encoder.” Would probably come off a bit rougher, ね？ FWIW the tracks were interesting to listen to, and I've had fun doing this as well. I recommend trying it with the Opus codec. As for the sensibilities of the author, I hope they can get over their paranoia about audio codecs being an ethnocentric conspiracy to destroy "the sounds they didn't want us to hear".
