    David,
      -This is an old adage but when a client complains about the last tuner  you are likely to be the next one under criticism

       I wouldn't  adjust my tuning methods to meet a clients preconceived notions of "correct" technique . The stability of the tuning is the goal and you are the expert.   It reminds me of  the football coach who said:
          " When you make decisions to please the fans you will soon be sitting with them "
