David, That's quite a mouthful, and I'm in no position to refute it. Virgil Smith and Jim Coleman Sr. are recognized top-flight tuners. It would indeed be interesting to see what the outcome would be if you could be in a contest with them. I wonder how much of our subjective analyses has to do with how each of us thinks a tuning should sound. Your tuning might sound vastly superior to you and some of your clients, but some technicians/pianists may think otherwise. I like mayonnaise with my french fries; just because I'm in the minority doesn't mean I'm wrong. You may not be wrong, either. It's a matter of preference, isn't it?
