Vinyl is actually higher fidelity than CDs though. That's not subjective, it's scientifically verifiable.

It's not. The benefits are all hypothetical. In practical demonstrations, records have dramatically less dynamic range and more distortion. It's not even a contest.

CDs have a digital sampling rate of 44.1 KHz. Vinyl is a continuous waveform as an analog medium, but if you were to digitize it, the equivalent sampling rate would be at 96 KHz or higher.

That's because humans can't hear frequencies above ~20 kHz. If humans could hear the difference, the sampling rate would be higher.
