Until about the 19th/20th centuries, the definition of sound was something MERELY associated with the experience/sensation of sound via OBSERVERS thereof.

Please note and underline the following fact:
This 'modern' definition of sound (along the lines of 'things' vibrating and affecting one another) DOES NOT TRANSCEND experience/sensation. Note too that this applies equally to all science based upon the sensation/experience of 'seeing/observation', more so really when you realise that most science has its basis in what can be 'seen'.
You always assert this, bare-assed, and in complete contradiction to everything we ever observe.
What a fucking wanked-out statement this is. I mean, I've just essentially explained why the metaphysical value of 'observation' is zero and your retort is "we cannot confirm this via observation"!!
Your IQ level has just taken a serious dive.
