True stereo is fake reality.
That's a philosophical statement, not really a technical aspect.

That's not philosiphical.
From a mono mix You can work on frequencies, as exemple you can add 8dB to 4000 Htz frequency on left channel, lower 8 dB the same frenquecy on right channel, things like that, it will give a slight stereo effect (re-processed stereo) but you will never separate an individual instrument from a mono mix and send it on the right or left channel.
The only way to get a stereo mix is from a multitrack tape/recording.
During the early 60's, once the final mix was done, the original multitrack tapes were erased, for economical reasons, and used again for other recordings. Tapes were expensive. The 1st LP was recorded on a three-tracks tape recorder if I'm not mistaken. The mixing done and aproved, the multitrack tape was erased.
This was definitively destrictuve, and in now way you can go back.
By chance, some songs released in mono only were also mixed in stereo (Chess 64).

You've missed the whole point in this thread.

the tambourine in the soundcloud example sounds terrible, very fake and artificial, even distorted, and that's what you get with these kinds of sound editing: it is just nothing. worthless.

a YouTube friend of mine who I know for many years finally found out that extracting stereo from mono INDEED is possible. Here is one of his many DES Rolling Stones songs: a very well done "Blue Turns To Grey":
