Ric, I expected better from you!
Using something because it makes an improvement in sound quality, as iirc HQ Player does for you, doesn't make one a fanboy

As for being upset
, don't be silly. Those of us who have found a benefit to using an m-scaler are the fortunate ones, as presumably are you with your chosen method. I'm not quite sure how to describe those who prognosticate without having the good sense to actually try one and at least see if their ideas hold up or need to be reevaluated.
In the end it comes down to how far, in the pursuit of accuracy, one needs to go and I suspect this will vary from one individual to another, hence the advice the OP is being given to try and then decide for himself.
