Sony 360 Reality Audio No LFE channel?

[Stingber09]

HI,

Does anyone know why Sony 360 RA doesn't have a dedicated LFE channel?
Do they assume the speakers are capable to reproduce frequencies below 100Hz?

I wonder how is going to sound like a live concert playback without a dedicated Subwoofer channel for Bass and Kick Drum content.

Below you will find the largest format 13.0 (5.0.5)+3B. Also, I'm using Sony 360 RA upmixer from Pente0 16 Pro (more details below).

I've assumed it is simply a 2.0 signal with some psychoacoustic effects applied, rather than have an actual lfe channel (and even in multich music sometimes there's no content in the lfe channel....particularly older stuff based on 4.0 quad stuff).
