Does this make sense? I think if people use a professional high-end audio interface to listen then this way would not work at all, but the advantage may be it's closer to how the majority people who listens music?
No. You need the fullest fidelity for translation to any and all sound play back environments. So a high end home stereo and a cheap pair of ear buds both translate to a great mix. There are so many issues to address. Even as a mix engineer. Dynamic range as it bumps up against eq decisions is the main one imo.
