And this is the important point I try to point out. Assuming the
software should be as good as a mixing console, it doesn't matter if
it's as good as the tools provided by the analog or digital consoles.
The difference is that the engineers and artists used a mixing console,
not some software for a desktop PC, a sound card and a mouse. The mixing
console has got inputs, faders and knobs. The differences of usable EQs
are less important, for the sound, as well as for the work-flow.

The name 32C
comes from the 32C hardware that it emulates.
It emulates... because... it is software. Yes, this is about a
softwar product. Mixbus 32C is a software product, based on
Ardour. As the subject line states. Just making sure everyone is
one the same page.
Harrison has been mostly in the business of making digital consoles
for a couple decades now.
The previous product with the Mixbus name used the EQ, dynamics, and
tape saturation algorithms from those consoles, thus literally
providing the same channel strip. Not an emulation, the same thing.
At least that is what Harrison claimed.
So yes, the distinction matters.
