I don't see anything wrong if it affects only a single individual or someone rich enough to afford it without consequences. What concerns me is the effect on a family of lesser means.
Totally agree.

Even in the event that the claims that are made for this "audiophool" ephemera were true, It's not worth spending hundred or thousands on exotic accessories which, even if they were somehow 'better', are like worrying about the added weight of a gnat landing on an aircraft carrier affecting operations. You might be able to find a system somewhere that could detect the improvements but, otherwise, you'll never know.

Basically, I don't give the furry crack of a rats behind what the "phools" or "philes" (note: two completely separate and different sets of individuals to my mind), spend their cash on, but I do get niggled when I want to buy an ECC83.
