I could go on - talking about a string quartet player recently involved in performing some of my music, who said, "For us, it's all about the line", as an excuse for unsteady timing. For my music, the line loses too much of its meaning, if the rhythmic proportions are distorted. That's where I live. YMMV.
I agree, Chuck -- after all, a line with no rhythmic stability is simply meandering pitches, and that's not what you wrote.
Next time tell him to get his rhythms more accurate or you'll take a pair of drumsticks and help him by beating the rhythm for him on the bout of his precious instrument! ;-)
