>Again, what do we mean by "better?" 

As I understand from my old days in the music world that supposedly
Bechsteins had the more "ergonomic" key action. (This is from a person who
played a 11 foot concert grand of one. ) My violin teacher had a very nice
Steinway in his studio. 9 footer I think.

But like cameras, I'm sure that the difference is a matter of opinion as
far as what's best when you use one among the best. Kind of like
Stradivarius being thought of as the best when everyone knows a Guarinerius
is better. :-)
