True...it is what suits YOU and not someone else.

Easy Edit is also on most pro synthesizers, and, in my experience as a clinician, most players user this feature.

For me, the Tyros4 has come the closest to a complete all-in-one instrument. I'm not much for using the easy play features (one fingered chord for example), although I have heard players that were using them that would put many so called "pros" to shame.

There are many variances in how we play and what gear we need to get our ideas across..it's like speech...some people need a paragraph to say one thing, whereas some can do it in a single sentence.

I like Montunoman's saying, "It's not the keyboard, but the keyboardist."
