Or another perspective:
Only the claviers and harps, as partitioned and measured musical  
instruments, are subjected to this difficulty; therefore, one must  
take refuge in temperament when tuning them.  Many books make much to  
do of this as if the welfare of the entire world depended on a single  
clavier.
Johann Mattheson
