I was just attempting to point out that the formats themselves do not constrain the ability of the composer to write music in one style or another. You could write a piece with an acceptable piano simulation in either format. What constrains the composer is the amount of support for "piano" sounds he could find related to these formats. If this was a commercial project, I could think of numerous commercial MIDI synths that have decent piano simulations, the problem is that I personally haven't heard any good piano simulations of the free software variety, and plugging in your own piano sounds is just as easy with a tracked song as with a MIDI song.
