Today, I tuned an antique player piano with its original strings - which were steel.

Has anyone thought of this angle ....

Maybe, the difference in the sound quality should be compared between new strings vs steel strings - which maybe why the 
antique pianos, in general, have a better tonal quality.

Just a thought,
