When I said the Triton V3 has greater transient current delivery capabilities, I meant in comparison to the Denali. But you're right -- theoretically, anything placed between the speakers and the wall could have some effect on the amount of current being delivered to the speakers.

On the other hand, you could also say that about the quality of the power cord (the relatively cheap stock cord that comes with the speakers probably won't have the same currenty-carrying capacity or low impedance characteristics as a well-engineered aftermarket 6-guage cord), the quality of the wall outlet (a cheap Decora outlet with nickel-plated bronze contacts probably won't transfer current as effectively as a Furutech outlet with rhodium-plated pure copper contacts), or even the quality of the wire in the wall (thin, stranded wire probably won't be as good as thicker solid-core wire). The question is, where do you draw the line?

I think what Marc was getting at -- and he can chime in here -- is that gross current-delivery anomalies could impair the speakers' self-protection design, which is why Meridian historically has recommended against AC line conditioners. Perhaps that's also why Meridian apparently felt Shunyata's older models (which were likewise passive units but ostensibly not as good at passing current as today's designs) wouldn't do any harm (which admittedly is a far cry from an endorsement)?

Of course, the crux of the matter is not just whether the Shunyata products do no harm (although, that's certainly important), but whether they're a worthwhile addition. In my system, I believe they are.
