Good question. The answer is that you are dealing with arrogant,
technically-inept idiots. Bob Cain is well known for his technical
incompetence and for mindlessly pulling equations and terminology out
of thin air. Harry Olson, in his classic 1957 book "Acoustical
Engineering", appropriately refers to this so-called Doppler
distortion as "Frequency Modulation Distortion" and refers to previous
work on the matter dating back to 1943. This is not the first time
that Bob Cain has demonstrated his total ignorance of previous work on
technical matters about which he is pontificating, and it most
certainly will not be the last.
