Thats not the full story. There was a Japanese study where untrained listeners could tell the difference between 10kHz sine waves and 10kHz square waves in double blind tests. That means that the listeners could tell presence or absence of the 30kHz third harmonic of the square wave. Theroretically this should not have been possible which indicates that theories of hearing perception are far from complete.
