for those that decry DR measurements as being bogus because they don't see any evidence of greater DR from sensors that have greater DR, that's because they've not seen photos which apply tone curves to the captured files that make use of the sensor's extended DR.
One important thing to "they've not seen photos which apply tone curves to the captured files that make use of the sensor's extended DR" - and still remain beautiful photos.
Absolutely. Not all photos, of course, are going to benefit from greater DR, just as not all photos are going to benefit from lower noise, more shallow DOF, more pixels, etc., etc., etc.
Photographically, dynamic range is the number of stops where the image retains enough photographic quality: resolution, colour fidelity, agreeable amount of artifacts.
Which is determined by choosing the "appropriate" noise floor, which is an interesting discussion in and of itself.
