As I have read (mildly) anti12-tET quotes attributed to both... I wonder if
the (narrower) confines of having to accommodate a milieu of �specialized�
performers has had much to do with this?

Hopefully the days of "specialized " performers is drawing to an end. In fact
the need for performers of more creative roles as active participants is in
demand. Who needs Dictators anyways. In fact there are some composers who in
reality are already a conglomerate of efforts with the "composer" as front man.
We have more and more Composer/Performers. Economics is the driving force
behind these works.
