"Imagine a professional musician being able to explore new compositions without having to play a single note on an instrument." A musician will always reach for an instrument as their compositional tool - keyboard and mouse producers are not musicians.

This makes no sense.

How is pressing a key on a piano different from pressing a key on an electronic piano?

I was referring to a computer keyboard, not an electric piano. I can't see how any musician would see this appealing as a compositional tool. Music is its own language - expressing a musical idea with a text prompt is antithetical to the process of making music.
