FLAC files are characterized by having audio quality comparable to vinyl records. So, no, not really. Not only that, but the fact that the audio quality of a vinyl degrades over time makes FLAC superior in every regard.

My favourite song is probably the intro to "Fight Fire with Fire" right before "Over the Wall" by Testament.

Eh, I'm halfway memeing, I only do that for albums that have favourable mastering/mixing on vinyl. The extra alleged 'resolution' of a vinyl record isn't useful imho. 16 bits 44.1khz of a CD is plenty. If it's a particularly fast or crowded type of album, the CD will actually likely sound better.
That's a pretty autistic hottake user. Nobody uses vinyl, or any physical media for that matter, as their workhorse listening solution. A record is the kind of thing you have on display to occasionally take off the shelf and take for a spin on a quiet night after work or something.

ho lee phuk this opinion is out of this world. Who the fuck are you?
First of all, plenty of people still buy CD's, and they aren't display pieces like your vinyl's. Secondly, it is utterly pompous to posit that all record collectors rarely spin their records. And even if that were true, I doubt most would have a record collection expansive enough not to play the same few favorites enough to notice a shift in quality.
