Too many "every's". The impossibility of any one person knowing every
temperament and its applicability to every piece of music has nothing to do with
improving our skills and increasing our offerings.
What I was suggesting was that by increasing our knowledge, and
broadening our horizons, we may be able to offer more of what people are willing to
purchase. That is the way it has worked out for me, and I do encourage any tech
that wants more out of his career to consider a multi-temperament ability.
If you consider more knowledge to be a burden, then it would be best to
continue on with the singular offering of only using one approach to tempering.
