Robert, you're probably right (although there is no way to prove it).
Do you know what Beethoven would have written?  Could you describe
it to a composer so that the composer could transcribe it to actual
compositions so we could hear what Beethoven would have written?

Of course, my questions are ludicrous.  We'll never be able to lay bare
the wonder of art.
