Certainly, you jest! True, when a tech straightens a key, it is less likely
to break. Skill and tools do create an advantage. Should a key break
during a repair, the tech will fix it if possible and charge accordingly.
S/he is not responsible for the poor condition of the instrument. I phone
customers when I find myself in such a situation, explain the problem and
ask their permission to continue.
