Basically my defense of traditional notation is that although it makes easy music hard to read initially, it makes difficult music easy to read in the long run. If a notation has to compromise, I'd rather pay the price at the beginning than for the rest of the time I use the notation. Also, I would ask, what problem does Hummingbird actually address (besides note naming)?
