Ironically, last year i decided to relearn piano after some 40 years. Learned one piece (a pretty good one, fortunately) and a once a day play triggered it. So. It's more like once every 2-3 weeks now, not long enough to forget, but long enough to keep the thumb feeling all right.

You better. I have an uncle who was a very accomplished pianist and who can't play anymore due to arthritis. Play the paint off it while you can.

Your accomplishments? For me playing music is for joy, not for status

My first bluegrass record:

Second record in progress:

1: They didn't say anything about status.

2: Developing a capacity or facility is an accomplishment regardless what purpose it's put to.

Trying to tell someone they don't have the right attitude based on something they didn't even say was an interesting way to profess joy.
