No offense but it's always the people with little-to-no experience & knowledge that seem to think they know what's right/good/proper/correct/enough. There's no shortage of bedroom/google "pros" that like to argue with the real ones who do it for a living. You have to realize that there's far more than nyquist in play. At the very least you need to consider the source signal, what kind of processing needs to be done, and how it will be delivered sonically in post. Audio can be manipulate in scores of different ways and the different methods & algorithms used to do so perform at different levels. In other words, what works well at X may not be as efficient or produce the same results at Y. In laymans terms there is not a one-size-fits-all anything when it comes to audio (the same being true for video as well).
