I believe that would be referring to the sharp height. 12mm would be way =
too much dip, which you would immediately find from too much hammer rise =
after drop. That is, unless you had a blow distance of about 60mm, which =
I don't think you could find on any piano around.
    Plus, in order to have a twelve mm dip, and not have the key bottom =
out in the whites, you'd need a key height of about 14mm wouldn't you? I =
suppose that would really teach those students to articulate their =
fingers, wouldn't it!
     So you see, I think they were talking about key height.

  Just to be clear: is 12mm the key dip measurement for sharps?  (I ask
  because this discussion has also talked about the height of sharps.)
