I think we're in agreement!
Your dropout point is a good one - if the signal error takes the form of an interruption that lasts long enough to be viewed as a dropout, then you could get a similar artefact (a short period of silence or blank screen) in the analogue and digital case. I was thinking more of the effects of noise on the signal rather than complete signal dropout.
DACs can certainly cause analogue effects - they are, after all, partly analogue!
