I think you may be 50-100 years too early Jerry.
The problem for me is that despite all the programming, yours and my midi sounds just that. We both know what a live player can do for a work and although it is well-nigh impossible to get a performance, I for one, still hold on to the ideal situation and write accordingly. If you are intending to be a composer for midi instruments alone, all well and good and yes, I agree, it's a waste of time adding details.
One day, there will undoubtedly be software that will incorporate programmable or default personality into the notes - imagine being able to buy a Rostropovitch vi (AI or viAi), or a Pollini piano player. Great musos will probably make a fortune selling their aesthetic performance proclivities to (say) VSL, who by then will have their own Quantum DAW for sale. You will probably be able to just talk to the DAW like a conductor would to a band and shape the performance and even dictate the music in, with live playback that is indistinguishable from the real thing, thanks to a never ending fractal drives, quantum entangled interpretation curves and multiverse bandwidth with Planck limiters (ok, don't know what I'm talking about now!) - that would be some modern amanuensis huh?
Until the day comes though, I'm happy to be in control of how my music should be performed and to communicate that with a detailed score - I hear music with articulation and phrasing when writing and that is how I'd like it performed, not that you don't of course because you do it with attack and cc's etc., but I like to make the musics' intention clear to all in the score as I believe it aids comprehension. I will join your ethos Jerry when the above happens if I'm still around....
It is hard to imagine the tools musicians might have 100 or 200 years from now. But I am sure people will still be making music with animal gut, bone, metal and wood, and electrons.
