So, Gargoyle, from what you says this concept of “acoustic watt” is used to predict the necessary power/gain of amplification needed for a drive an acoustic system in a given room. I feel that the acoustic wattage is very odd way to do it.


Almost, except the acoustic system is on the same side of the equation as the amplification. It's borderline semantics I know.
It is somewhat odd in the niche of HiFi, but in the broader sense it is practical because it is transportable to other things that do not have speakers.

BTW, the acoustical resistance of air is NOT nonlinear.


A 100 horsepower car may do 100 MPH, but the same car with 200 horsepower cannot do 200 MPH.
It may take around 400 horsepower to reach 200 MPH. That is why I say the resistance is nonlinear.
