No, you're not the only one.  Add to that list the fact that when you kill
the split keyboard (for upper/lower manual) to just one manual, it's the
LOWER manual that disappears...well, try doing a jazz gig like that.  I
actually take my 80's Korg Bx3 out when I have to do a gig like that without
furniture - the ergonomics override the sound issues.

I just haven't got to the point of selling mine because frankly, I use it so
infrequently.  If the Nord had real frickin' drawbars instead of that
post-space-age butt-oon BS I'd might be inclined to swap for that.
