Yes, I do.   Still, my suggestion in the post was that perhaps at times, with 
the right instrument, replacing a broken string with an undersized string 
might be an appropriate choice.   No one really responded to that, specifically.

Yes, tying the old one back in would probably be the best choice of all.   

There are plenty of old uprights that have dead bass strings, with students 
as their primary players, and households that have no money for a better piano 
or new bass strings, who have thrown the old string away, that might benefit 
from this technique.   

At least, that's what I wanted to suggest.   I accept any and all flames 
directed at this concept.
