Question:
What's the real point of streaming services / FLAC that offer 24 bit depth at 96 khz lossless if our ears simply do not have the hardware capability to perceive a difference vs 48khz (OPUS encodes, for example).

For listening purposes, 24/96 is marketing IMO. Lossless, less so, though somewhat (at least it takes the "was-this-adequately-encoded" question out of the equation, since lossless is always yes). If you're going to process the audio after the fact, then lossless/24/96 all become more significant.
