A way Destiny excites me

Somehow, movie theaters and producers of home video content have managed to get away with allowing end users only a single volume control. I'm at a loss to describe exactly why is it a game is that different.

You seriously don't see a difference between a fixed piece of art, and a game you're supposed to play / use / interact with?

Not with regard to audio mix, no. The audio is not an interactive portion. It's not analogous to installing a mod, creating a custom game, or any of the other examples.

Have you ever created house rules for games you play, like Monopoly? Have you ever played football on a field that wasn't exactly 100 yards long? Have you ever played a mod? Have you ever adjusted the gamma / brightness of a game?

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. And yes.

It's just that none of those are relevant here.

However if you feel the sheer weight of bad argument by analogy will sway Marty and the other audio guys, hey... feel free.

Why not try some car analogies? I hear they work pretty well.
