Now they go to great lengths to put in the stuff we tried to take out. Just a humorous obsevation.

Yep, it was the same thing with Hammonds and key click, remember? That was supposed to be a fault originally, but it became THE hammond sound, and now no self-respecting keyboard would be without some key click on its Hammond emulation. It's a funny old world.
