Music is an experience that engages multiple senses, states of mind, and evokes responses from all over our bodies, in the ideal scenario. And it may sound trite but these could include foot tapping, air guitar, tears, goosebumps, meditative states - how could one ever try to predict those responses with a set of numbers?

Well stated, and this is far from trite!  This IS what it all comes down to and IS what one should strive for in the end.  Being this is so purely an individual "thing", everyone at some point has different acuity "levels" (think beginner listener vs mastering engineer) throughout their audio journey.  Those levels give us experience which then formulates our preferences which ultimately changes how each we get to that end result
