Frankly you make it sound like it's better to not know.

Unless you're in music production, learning "how bad things sound" doesn't sound like a good thing.

Generally I would agree that if you exercise this muscle, it can be hard to turn off.

There's still a lot of room for art in the process, though. With experience you get less attached to your particular sonic leitmotifs, and that helps. Even if you would not personally mix it the same way.
