It's also partly a 'Europe versus USA' thing! The VU 'standard' was cobbled
together by Bell Labs, CBS and NBC back in the late 30's or early 40's.
They optimized it for radio broadcasting primarily, but for all sound
recording in general.
I don't think those Bell labs scientists would have liked the way
you describe their pioneering efforts, by the way those labs were
an international bunch of scientists cobbling stuff together as
the first in the world at that time. PPM just like PAL came later
and was in part build on the lessons learned from Bell..
