You are forgetting your Marketing 101 lessons. This is just one of the reasons that every one of their pianos have a "unique personality". You wouldn't want every Model S to be exactly like the next Model S, now would you? Why, that would be like having all the keys "feel" the same. We want each key to have its own personality also!
