[CAUT] Upright tone openings

Why aren't there "tone openings" in most uprights?  I recall a very old spinet which had cloth-covered openings at the sides of the music stand.  What about the lower panel?  Sound can get out of grands, but not uprights unless you raise the lid.  When I practice on my fine Rippen "Concerto" model, I often remove the bottom panel.  Of course, the tone is then fabulous.

Comments, please!
