So, my understanding is that the pickup is influenced by the string moving and tells the speaker to make a sound.
So, everything else should be no consequence, besides maybe sophistication of pickup and size of string.
So, why do other things seem to matter? I’m at a loss for a lot of specific examples, but people are always discussing various elements of their guitars and their impact on sound, but I don’t see how anything really impacts sound. Like why all the cutouts, swoops, materials, different saddles and bridges, etc. I’d understand on an acoustic, but on an electric a lot of it seems like it shouldn’t matter.

You’re also discounting the impact the amplifier can have on the sound, in addition to any pedal setups or accessories the musician might employ to make their sound.
This all has a huge impact on the final product.
