Indeed, if you are wearing some decent cans, some preset can actually improve your experience, which is entirely subjective ofcourse. You should try increase clarity without gaining too much distortion (to be noticable). Also decent phones and even some of the in-ear earbuds definitly benefit from a "bass-boost" setting.

The reason why the studio doesn't do this themselves, is because not everyone has speakers with drivers that can produce the extra range reasonably distortion free, in fact, most people don't. Also like I said, what gains are preferable is entirely subjective.
