It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: "Mahler's spare lines"

FYI, here's Cooke's lecture given at the first performance of his "completion" (he doesn't call it that) of Mahler 10.

One point that Cooke makes is that the short score that Mahler left has some aspects that are new to his music, e.g., constantly changing time signatures in the scherzo. So one reason you might find the 10th unMahler-like is that Mahler had gone off in some new directions in this piece (as he did in the 9th, which has litte in common with the 8th).
