Yes, dramatically. These guitars are tuned to a few specific keys and one designed tuning regime.

No, that's not a thing.
Consider:
What is the impact on you of someone creating a new thing?
Are you being forced to adopt it?
Are people's reactions equal to the little impact it'll have on them?
Now, any invention I've seen has not turned up pristine and immediately useful - it takes a stage of refinement, I'd rather be on the commitee of people finding the appropriate niche for a thing than the bunch of naysayers who have to backtrack when the necessary innovation follows invention.
It is easy to dismiss people - and that ease is something I'm wary of, when something new rocks up, doubt and curiousity are natural reactions... so when I read bold dismissive statements - I'm not seeing doubt or curiousity and it's reasonable to beleive I'm not seeing authentic behaviour.
I wouldn't want intonation over being able to bend strings in a familliar fashion, but I think on a Bass or a Jazz box it might be a good thing... perhaps on a Baritone...
So it can be a thing, but that's the thing it'd be and frankly it'd be better not being a thing.
I don't think I said anyone was a dinosaur, just that I saw a lot of scripted behaviour, that is emotional response being rationalised and defended in an overstated fashion. The only reason I can say that is it's repeated behaviour, is trying to move a conversation out of a negative rut scripted behaviour? It might be, but if it is it's one of the healthier scripts.
Is it big enough to impact a whole band or wmall enough to be irrelevant... at the moment people are cautioning it'll be both .. which feels a bit like someone's describing a mythical beast.
but you can't make it flatter than the plain fretted note, unless you slacken the string with the trem
anyway - point is - you can't fix everything,even if you are that skilled.
However, the worst offenders are flat 3rds, apparently 14 cents flat, so they can possibly be fixed by the most talented

I sometimes wonder if any of my confusion about music is based off hearing something and knowing it's different from something people were telling me it was the same as.
