Amusing remark! :-) That may be an accurate observation, but I think the remark tells more about different ambitions among users than general differences between hardware vs software based instruments. The traditional way to go for anyone who wants to improve as a musician/composer is to get the best tools available and stick with them to progress. If the choice goes to software this user may be tempted to "upgrade" or "try more plug-ins" or whatever possibilities there are to distract him. But this type of user will probably stick to the original rig set-up that he considers "his instrument", just because that's the only attitude that leads to the progress he has envisioned. On the other hand, some musicians may find a much more rewarding feeling in simply trying out a lot of gear, without necessarily learning much in terms of musicianship or composing from the process.
