Or just don’t have one? Most people don’t own $100,000 pianos and somehow they make do.
I am sure most people wouldn't refuse to have a $100 000 piano if they had space for it.
If you take the ratio of amount of time I play my piano to the TCO of my piano, I am expecting to spend something like $2-5 TCO / hour of entertainment (without considering resale value in ~30 years) over my life. That is a ratio that is better than most forms of entertainment. It rivals computer games, which are also pretty good on TCO / hour of enjoyment.
That is even the case with a very high-end instrument. Perhaps more people should have things like pianos.
What a weird take.
Eh. I mean, I don't have a piano, but I think a world in which no one ever does anything that can't be done on a laptop computer, would not be a better place.
But they do have one, so your point is moot.
