> What are your thoughts on this? 

No one has said the soundboard isn't involved. What was said 
is that soundboard rise/fall doesn't change string lengths 
nearly enough to change tensions enough to produce the tuning 
changes we hear. So soundboard rise/fall isn't the primary 
mechanism. That's been established beyond a reasonable doubt. 
There is lots and lots of discussion on this in the archives.
