The full effect of sustaining is achieved by the opening of ALL of the strings as opposed to just those being played. The sound between the two methods is very different. By the way, a pedal solonoid is an added cost option with Pianomation, as is simply having all 88 notes play. I believe that 80 key solenoids is the standard.
