Sure it works , and the tuning last longer too if they can't bang on
it.

But it is yet necessary to have the most "natural" regulation (no
violence, but enough strength) & voicing to keep a piano in shape
longer.

Despite of it, if the pianist is a piano killer, he will find ways to
mistreat the instrument always.
