That may be true, but the sound designers were still making the best of what they had. They could probably imagine how the same composition would sound better.

When you play e.g. Gamecube games in an emulator, do you run them in 480p or do you render at a higher resolution? The former is clearly what the designers were targeting, but I think there’s rarely any benefit to eschewing higher resolutions. It just looks even better.
