"Loop the area around that peak, then one by one, mute individual tracks until you find the one that contributes the most amount of signal. For example, suppose a section peaks at 0dB. You mute one track, and the peak goes to 2. You mute another track, and the section peaks at 1. You now mute a track and the peak hits 7. Found it! That's the track that's putting out the most amount of energy."

Um, no. If you were soloing them, then yes. Unless you meant -2 for the first one, -1 for the second, and -7 for the third.

Poking fun at an early-'70s' pedal design for lack of LED nor power jack is kinda misguided. Power jacks on pedals were a rarity, and LEDs were unheard of.And unless the Phase 100 has undergone a complete redesign since its heyday (also the '70's, though I guess the complete redesign is not altogether too unlikely in the years hence), it would be 100% analog. Digital was unobtainium back in the day.

"the first time A Star Is Born was released on the big screen, it was in 1976 with  Barbara Streisand and Kris Kristofferson"

You seem to be forgetting A Star Is Born with Judy Garland playing alongside James Mason from 1954.

You seem also to be forgetting A Star Is Born with Janet Gaynor playing alongside Friederich March from 1937.

Both essentially the same story arch.
