Your are so right MarcK. For a couple of years a singer in my band played a very cheap PSR keyboard ( can't even remember the model ) while I played a Motif 6. Everyone thought she sounded great on it. She was a great player and that's all that really mattered. I know the Motif has much more flexibility but in the long run that doesn't matter too much.
It makes the arguments here over keyboards seem sooooooo futile. The audience really can't tell the difference. The player's ability is much more important than the keyboard itself.
