Having been around digital audio and digital signal
processing for over 10
years, I am still far from convinced.

I don't have the same experience as you but I completely agree. Having read
many things around about DSD I am now conviced the other way around, i.e. I
think DSD is worse than PCM at the same bitrate. Here are some iteresting
articles:

Let alone all the processing problems that arise with 1 bit signals.
Is DSD/PDM
just a flash in the pan, or does it really represent a new wave
of thinking regarding storing/processing audio data?
I go for option 3. Its marketing.
