Depends on cable type and speed. Sometimes it will limit maximum bandwidth available, but yeah if there’s enough noise it will simply kill the connection
Well. If it negotiates a lower bit rate I’m pretty sure the audiophile level kit will tell you it’s no longer 24 bit 96khz or whatever the cool kids use now.
But I’m pretty sure most High bitrate systems will have some level forward error correction, when the cable cannot deliver the snr needed to repair errors the signal will usually completely drop out. It will be perfect then gone.
Without error correction, random bit errors in digital audio are seriously jarring.
Having high quality (in terms of screening and contacts) won’t have the kind of subtle change it can have with analogue signals. With analogue you’re fighting things that can be minor like induced noise.
