And when you've constructed the perfectly in-tune instrument, I'll buy it and lip those perfect notes out of tune because of my rotten sense of pitch.
Of course, the big problem is deciding what "in-tune" means. We are only in tune when our pitch matches what is needed to make the ensemble sound good. That is rarely close to equal temperament, and often because equal temperament isn't what sounds good.
