I was hoping to re-frame your question. Earlier, you said:

This shows a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of pitch. (and  
sadly, the pun was intended)

I was hoping to point out that the PITCH range is pretty wide, at  
least as wide as acoustic instruments, and it is only missing about an  
octave and a half off of the high end of human hearing as far as  
fundamental pitches are concerned.
