I think they do their market research exclusively on nonprofessionals and hobbyists that all use One Finger Chords (It's what all their default settings use!

)
You ask a moron what they think of a product, you get moronic answers, and then make moronic decisions. I KNOW they don't ask their demonstrators - Nicolai Damgaard (one of their top European demonstrators) STILL has to use a G1000 on his own gigs, because they dropped the Chord Sequencer...
I KNOW they don't poll hobbyists for their workstation market research.... That division CARES about whether they compete professionally.
