It's possible to have CD Audio and CD-ROM with same amount of "damage" and the data CD can have an exact copy, but Audio CD won't.

Also "written" rather than pressed CDs can deteriorate faster, that's why there was/is archival quality versions.

I have many 30 year old approx "written" CD Audio, CD-Data and Bureau Photo CD discs. Some of the Audio CDs are now audibly "damaged". The CD-data and photo CD are all fine.

1:1 copies are not assured with CD-Audio, but it's a lot better than CD Audio > minidisc > CD Audio. Only wav or similar files on CD-ROM are better.

You might often get 1:1 with CD Audio. The fact you always have doesn't mean it's always true.
