Anyone familiar with the "Tectorial Membrane"?

How do we know this membrane is not the culprit (causing tinnitus)?

How do we know it is damaged hair cells and not a dysfunctional Tectorial Membrane?

(do we assume it's everyone's hair cells without really knowing?)

This Membrane (along with the cilia) is required to create vibratory signals to the auditory nerve.
