  As I think about this I must say that this remedy is  just treating some 
other symptom , is it not?  Like poor geometry, too  heavy hammers, or poor 
weigh off ...if any?
 
  Dale:




Remember of course that when we measure touch weights on a grand  action, the 
action is usually on the bench or otherwise separated from the  damper 
assembly (say, by putting the sustain pedal on). In effect you've  made the action 
feel as those the sustain pedal is on, even when it  isn't.







True enough, but we're talking about real world  playing.  Measuring on the 
bench doesn't give an accurate account of what  the player actually feels with 
the piano fully  assembled.
