Piano Design Question

Hello Del, Stephen, list.

This thread makes me remember an old Blüthner that I ran across, years ago. 
It had some crossed strings, but not at all in the way we are used to see : 
the few (4 or 5) highest bass unissons were hardly crossing over the few (4 
or 5) lowest tenor ones.  Today no more than then can I understand the 
purpose of this arrangement.

Best regards.

Stéphane Collin.
