I am tempted to give you partial credit on your point.If you look at equal loudness contours you will see that at low frequencies a 1dB change is more perceptable than it is at higher frequencies(the curves are closer together at low freq and further apart at high freq).I once made a trade-off in an OEM design of a woofer that increased the network cost by $2 but saved over $20 off the cost of the magnetic circuit on the woofer.The difference at retail is usually 6x parts cost so it allowed the retail price to be $200 less on a pair($900 vs $1100).
