This is not the point. Maybe you play me different
harmoncias with different reed materials, and I tell
you what you played. 10 times in a row without
mistake. And I win 1000 dollars from you. Will that
change the fact that the audience will be unable to
hear the difference? No. It was just me who has an
exceptional hearing. I certainly get 1000 dollars
richer, which is a nice thing. But this is not
something what will improve the harmonica. Maybe if I
spend the money on further experiments :-)
