Does "THX-certified" matter for a Receiver?

Terminator 2 is the only THX-certified Blu-ray disc...yet it is so incredibly far from reference quality that its embarassing. Not to mention the vast majority of real high-end equipment is not even submitted for THX evaluation--I think that alone says something.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of Crystal Skull is THX certified and if Im not mistaken so is Close Encounters of the Third Kind. And both of those films especially Indiana look and sound fantastic!
