My gracious the universe is digital....what will the analog sound loving audiophiles(who hate digital sound) think and do now....?Demand that God make a vacuum tube version of the universe?(reality with a warmer bass sound!)

When we record digital, we must use an analog media. It seems to me that transistors are turned on and off, but must go thru a short transition that is neither one nor zero but a rising or falling voltage or current level.
Magnetic media: it is doughtful that we ever fully saturate the tape. Is every magnetic particle on the tape fully aligned? What about the transitions between the ones and zeros?
It seems the available media is what prevents us from achieving true digital and why we use analog to imitate it.
Even vacuum tubes can be saturated fully on or off, but can we get around the rise and fall times that are in the realm of analog?
