Well, what I said was meant more for illustrating to a beginning tuner that
they spend too much time on what matters least. It was intended as a way of
helping them define a point of diminishing returns at the beginning. That
said, yes, there is a considerable difference in the requirements between
dealer floor tuning, and concert work.

I rarely do any floor tuning any more, but yes; I do stop when a sale is in
progress, and yes; it does add too much time to the process. That's one of
the many reasons I rarely do floor work any more.
