No exaggeration at all, Frank.? If memory serves, Del once demonstrated under-engineered concert grand key flex by pushing the front of the key ALL the way down to the punching while holding down the back of the key.? Kinda renders all that precision key dip work irrelevant beyond mezzo piano, doesn't it?? (To say nothing of lost energy!)

Hi Gerald, ... How much flex is too much? ... If you can hold down the back of the key and press the front of the key halfway through its distance of travel, you definitely have a flexy key!
