Let's translate the black square to the world of music: Press the C key on your piano and hold it down for a full minute then release. This is the "music" released by someone who later became renowned for this music. The music experts call it an amazing work of art. You disagree, and you're told to take a music history class if you want to understand why that one-note music is an amazing work of art. Ridiculous, isn't it?
To me your black square is a 1-minute C note, and your soup can is "Mary had a little lamb".
I’m guessing you’ve got opinions about 4’33”, too.

I sure hope you're not going to argue that it has the same artistic merit as literally any song of the same duration with at least one note.

No, the argument is that it has comparable artistic merit to the Black Square.
That's a new hot take... For 1915.
My friend, do yourself a favor and take an art history class.
You'll both get to more art and understand it better in the process of doing so.
