This is a computer we're talking about. It needs a base unit of measurement.
But its not about whether or not we remove things but where we allow the the emphasis to me put. I read a piano thoery book once where a chapter was devoted to where the emphasis on a rest should go; Whole rest, half rest front, half rest back, center rests...you get the idea.
Well the computer, if we allow it to divide into sub-tones would allow to achieve sounds like this. I think its going to allow the music to move forward from the sort of boxy arrangements its been put into by current programming.
