Do we know for a fact that Kate _doesn't_ supervise the mastering
herself?  Many artists do.

In the case of digitally mixed  program, it's not _necessary_ that the
mastering process involve making _any_ artistic or corrective changes
at all--it's simply a format/media transfer. You can even do the
mastering yourself with a CD recorder.  In any case, it is not a "fact
of the industry," nor "inevitable" the way it was in the days of
vinyl.
