This last bit made me laugh out loud. Well I guess some musicians do not really feel like focusing on every single note. The good ones do though. But seriously, I see no reason to change a system which works so well for so many different kinds of music. All these alternative systems, I don't see what advantage they offer. On the contrary, there are many downsides - they're unsuitable for keyboards, unsuitable for tonal music, unsuitable for music in unequal temperament, unsuitable for microtonal music, require relearning how to read music, make transposition harder. So what's the point?
