Using that comparison, though, aren't you saying we shouldn't even label
knobs and jacks...?

Maybe its just me, but I never quite get this argument. It reminds me of
people wanting to write the letters of the notes onto the keyboard. Last
time I checked, a violin didn't have frets and a guitar didn't have
letters written on it. OK, a violin is a different animal...or is it? It
isn't if Paul and the other guys making modulars can be considered a
"post-modern" version of instrument craftmenship.

Point being: Visual interface be damned. For those that can play the
piano, ever get slapped on the wrist during a lesson as a child for
looking at the keyboard? One doesn't make music with their eyes, one
does is it with their hands and ears...
