Consequently, we look for validation in our tools. We want our plugins to be "pure" because it validates our workflow. We want the plugin to be mathematically perfect so we feel like professionals, or we want it to be a perfect clone so we feel like we have "real" gear. Or is it "purely synthetic imperfection"

Plugin developers know we want this. They market "component-level modeling" and "end-to-end circuit simulation." They are selling us the promise of purity.
