Actually Sam, no. Bringing out the notion that the transient response is being accentuated by the non-linearity of the cochlea and considering it's evolved value is an aspect I hadn't really considered, certainly not in the way you've put it. Also, the observation that the results demonstrate that the brain doesn't 'correct' for the functioning of the ear is a very valid point that tells us something interesting about the ear/brain interface.
Are you talking about shannon and nyquist sampling theorum? Or did Nyquist do other notable work in this area?
I think I may have misused 'interesting' as probably meant 'novel' or surprising, so I'm sorry if anyone thought it meant I was talking about something I find boring. The function of the ear/brain and the physics of sound are, by simple merit of the fact that I'm in to music and sound reproduction, interesting subjects.
