Wait until you learn about live beyond 12TET

In short: no you're factually wrong. Human ear can discern smaller pitch changes and there actually music composed on smaller subdivisions than 12

For instance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19_equal_temperament

You can check done pieces on YouTube.

Yes it sounds unusual. Yes it sounds strange. But thats just because you've been conditioned to listen 12 tet all your life.

But saying 12 notes because we can't perceive smaller changes is, again, wrong and there's actual counterexamples of music done with smaller changes

Very small, almost unixy on its do-one-thing-well approach

Very underrated
