I agree with everything your saying, there really is no way to tell how much more damage one round causes compared to another. Since that information is not available I can see why some may not think it's worth choosing a caliber based on how much damage it may do to ones hearing, especially if they never suffered damage to begin with. Since I already suffered some hearing damage my logic is to go with a lower pressure round to potentially prevent as much damage as possible in the future. I too am not an authority on such matters, the best I can do is draw a conclusion based off what information is out there and choose what suits my needs the most.
