> It's largely driven by a kind of retro nostalgia

Incorrect. The reasons why vinyl specifically is still relevant (as opposed to any other "retro" audio format) are technical.

Vinyl avoids compression issues by design. (Compression both in the computer science sense and in the audio engineering sense.)

This is complete bullshit, sorry. Digital is more capable of faithfully reproducing sound than vinyl is. Vinyl does not have technical advantages when it comes to faithful sound reproduction. I mean, it literally degrades over time, for chrissake!

I don't know what kind of "compression issues" you're talking about but I strongly suspect you'd be well served by learning about the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem.
