I studied almost my whole undergrad focusing on finger strength- after a while, i ended up injured because of how badly I was straining my hands- just to follow a specific technique. After restructuring my playing based off of the taubman technique, playing, memorizing, etc. became so much easier. Playing was more about ease which made performance easier and practicing more efficient. Imo there’s no reason to get stuck in the dogma of old piano techniques. Everyone has different sized hands where edited-in fingerings may not work. In terms of articulation, if its really necessary to be played a certain way I think that articulation markings are more common.
