Summary

This quote conveys the frustration and limitation experienced by someone who can only play a plastic keyboard. The person is suggesting that if given a keyboard with weighted keys, they would struggle because their fingers lack the strength required to press them down. As a result, their ability to express themselves and achieve nuanced musical dynamics is compromised. This highlights the importance of physicality and strength in playing certain instruments, demonstrating how different tools can greatly affect an individual's performance and artistic expression.
