That's very interesting indeed, and I feel similar about the Thomastiks on my electric (although electric guitars are a very different animal etc.) I can imagine there's plenty who would say that the strings should be matched to the guitar (or be 'neutral'), rather than the other way round - or whatever variations people prefer - it's just really interesting to hear that particular perspective.
