That's true if your piano is serving strictly a utilitarian role. If it is a 
performance piano (meaning any piano where good performance is 
desired/appreciated), then that rule breaks down quickly.

Yes you are right, how true, I do hardly any concert work, that makes sense

Re: Pressing on the piano strings to test damper springs:

Such a procedure will not at all test the condition of the damper lever 
spring. It will tell you if the damper lever rod is improperly adjusted (or the 
sustain pedal or the damper heads themselves). If you wish to evaluate the 
performance of the damper lever spring, one needs to test the resistance to movement 
of the spring itself.

 Thank you, I didnt know this.
