When did things like lighting and sound design become small details?

Compared to graphics, or how much teraflops a console has? Always.

Not that it was insignificant, but it never was in the spotlight.

The quality of lighting makes an actual world of difference for the visual representation of anything. Trying to box lighting off from graphics as a whole makes no sense.
