Never has, never will. Life is entirely about compromise! Bottom line for me is, I can tolerate a lightweight action more than I can tolerate the loss of 15 notes!
Trust me, I have probably complained, on the Suggest New Features forum over at Roland-arranger.com, more about my G70 than anyone who doesn't have a Yamaha has complained about Yamaha here!
There are just as many compromises I have to make to use a G70 as I would have to to use a Yamaha. But picking and choosing WHICH compromises you are willing to make and which you are not is basically the selection process!
All things being equal, yes, of COURSE I (and probably everyone else here) would prefer a nice feeling keyboard to a spongy one. But PSR's aren't THAT spongy... If I HAD to play one if that's all they had in a 76, I'd probably do it. And so would possibly many more here who complain about the same thing, given that, once you rule out the PSR simply because of the 61 factor, might as well complain about everything else, too!
Everyone here makes compromises. The fun is, arguing about WHICH ONES we can accept or not
