For IEMs is tuning all that matters? (alien.top)

I heard this in another sub, that only tuning matters for IEMs but I'm not seeing it.

Aside from tuning what parts are giving advantages? The housing, the drivers, the materials used?

Example, the truthear nova ($150) is tuned nearly the same as the moondrop variations ($520). Does that mean they would have the same sound quality?

Go watch YouTuber "sharur" if you want to have a laugh. His review method is to tune his moondrop variations to the specs of the "reviewed" iem

That dude is a fucking joke and it's baffling he's gotten any traction at all. The idea that people are trusting "reviews" from someone who's never heard the headphone is a profound bummer.

His Monarch MK3 "review" is hysterical. Like dude, you're literally missing 5 drivers and you think this is useful information?
