But that has nothing to do with what I was trying to say.
I mean, if a low note last 30 seconds (halfway point at 15 second) or if a high note lasts 10 seconds (halfway point at 5 second), you're still assuming that the level at the halfway point matches the level you want at half initial velocity, and I don't think that's necessarily true.

But I believe that the decay of the sound is not linear, that's the issue.
(Though as others have mentioned, there are other technological impediments regardless.
