Certainly there are other aspects of HIP that I loathe - messa di voce bowing, anyone? - but I was just confining discussion to the quality mentioned in the Strad article, the quality which listeners will notice most easily when they listen to HIP groups, and the quality which I would call a horrible mannerism generated by 20th century academicians. As I mentioned below to C.B., I've still got my wooden stake and mallet at the ready - but alas, the pandemic has spread significantly!
