I don't think the above file system would be adequate. I have built a few amps, have notes, and many pages of such information from a friend who's built many hundreds, over many years, and will tell you off the top of his head the difference in Sounds of different brands & types of components, in different locations, but only in context with many other contributing factors.
Yes, I think I have tried to not only make obvious but to emphasize that we are talking about observed inter-component interactions within a specific topology. There is no one "ideal resistor" dictum, etc.

It is exactly because there is so much seemingly non-generalizable information out there that an attempt to categorize, codify, and analyze it should be made. I'm simply asking for some raw data, rather than naysaying against the process itself.

The fundamental question is whether it is all reducible to resistance, inductance, and capacitance (so to speak), or whether we can discover evidence of properties of audio circuits that are important but not currently recognized as such.
