I partly agree, especially about how the signal does -- depending on the
signal and the noise and whatever else -- "stand out" as you say. But much
of what causes it to appear to do that are all of the distortion products.
It doesn't, as best as I can tell, actually have anything to do with noise
reduction. Frankly, I find the distortion caused on both CW and SSB modes
with NR engaged to cause very high listener fatigue after some period of
time.
