I am also a bit puzzled by "an unquestionably obvious historical
technique".

Why don't baroque lutenists today use what is an unquestionably
obvious historical technique?
My idea about this is : they study how it should be done, then they do how
it is easyer for them... (I'm speaking about pros...)
For me, I'm not sure how it should be done, and I'm doing how I'm able to
do... ;-)))
I still have many question about what is an "unquestionably obvious
historical technique"
(certainties are often changing...)
