Yes, @tantacrul is right:
Music notation is extemely absurdly complex , but also this is is why I kinda found some OSTs of some RTSes playing in ancient times to be "meh"...

@tantacrul And yes, even I as someone who failed miserably at learning keyboard has to agree that #PianoRoll may look nice in #Synthesia on a #Screen but really doesn't work at reading #music at all...
Even if we go with like super simple tunes...
One can't really intuitively read #PianoRoll when playing, whereas regular western staff & clef notation can be adapted to any instrument - even if it sounds weird...

@tantacrul And yes, I still want to hear someone play "Nightmare Night" on a huge Church Organ, tho as demonstrated here you can even play the same notes on an electric guitar...
But thx to @tantacrul for clearly explaining that demonizing something as a form of "#ClassWarfare" is more of a #distraction than actually working.

It's like banning a language or culture as an agressive move of warfare against it.
Make of that can of worms what you will, but not everything is inherently bad due to it's prevalence or history.
Modern Western #MusicNotation is like #SystemD:
People constantly hate it but the standard has been established because alternatives are either not solving everything or only nieche cases or completely fall on their face once they encounter something they weren't designed for...
For better or worse...
Like #Tablature, the #init script of #Notation: It gets people started but fails for anything more complex.
@tantacrul Similar to how #analog gauges, instruments and clocks can be read faster and more intuitively by neurotypicals because a coarse position of a pointer or hand [just below 50 km/h] is more important than the precise number [i.e. driving 48 or 49 km/h ] in question.
@tantacrul And yes, #Musitude is absolute garbage...
And your analysis is correct:
Not #Notation, but ability to play and exercise is the problem...
@tantacrul It's obvious that #Musitude isn't even working for their own hand-picked sample...
WTF?!!???

@tantacrul And worse: #Musitude doesn't even make sense in regards to how a #PC - #Keyboard is layouted and where buttons are, because every #DAW that allows one to abuse a keyboard in lieu of a set of #MIDI keys doesn't do that...
They'd rather go QAZ WSX EDC RFV ... in terms of playing notes because that makes more sense, with naybe shift in some cases...
@tantacrul Seriously, WTF?
@tantacrul And yes,#accessibility of existing #notation is a big problem basically almost noone implements these...
@tantacrul WTF IS THIS?
Is this real notation written by a real person?

@tantacrul Really nice to see #MuseScore really getting more #accessible and leveraging the fact that data and interface can be abstracted so even if you'd cringe about it, one could even develop #Musitude support for it, tho I'm convinced that noone should do so, but hey, it's possible...
