You don't need a trained ear for lossless audio to be different for lossy audio.

do a blind test between ogg 320kbps which Spotify premium uses and FLAC and tell me your score then

my point is, if you're not working on that audio, there is no audible difference between two

I compress everything with Opus 192kbp/s (way over the human ear). I get the quality of FLAC with the size of an MP4. Also Spotify sucks with their AI slop.
