I wouldn't call it ego, but rather an unfamiliarity with the 
device. I registered Tunelab97 way back when, to use for chip 
tuning and casual physics prospecting in the shop. Since I use 
it so seldom, it takes me a looong time to go over a piano 
with it. For a seasoned and habitual ETD user, it's nothing 
special, but if I was in Zeno's position I'd not much like 
having to put in the time to become comfortable with it for 
one concert, or just wing it one-off.

Yea yea, I know - a *REAL* professional should be able to 
seamlessly accommodate any random demand no matter how aberrant.
