RE: Sound Quality Changes caused by Sata cables.

It's not a loophole. The specific issue was interference to narrow band receivers. Spreading the signal around does not reduce total interference, which is minimal. It reduces the probability that specific interference will be noticed.

The proper solution is to declare that all the older narrow band receivers are obsolete and to reassign the spectrum under the assumption that all receivers and transmitters are "smart". This would improve available bandwidth many times over. Instead, we continue to use 1920's radio technology because of politics. That's what this is all about, politics, not technology.

Receivers should be require to work properly in the presence of interference. This is possible with modern radio technology. It has always been possible with modern audio technology, since the frequencies involved do not come close to overlapping. You are correct that DACs, preamps, and amps should be tested under extremely high noise environments, both using objective and subjective methods. (There are subjective factors that can be heard by good listeners that as yet we do not know how to measure.)
