I got to say, being the developer of the NerdSEQ that you are comparing Apples with at least Pears.
First, surely you can never compare something In-Rack with lets say fruity loops, Live or whatever DAW. These are running on gigahertz computers with gigabyte of memory, big (multiple) HD screens, mouse, keyboard and loads of virtual stuff.
Then the concepts lets say compared with the MC909 are also totally different. Not to mention the ways of inserting sequences.
Key ergonomics is surely a thing with eurorack in general. It starts to work out fine once it is horizontally in front of you.
And of course, more keys and a bigger screen are for sure things to mention, but not realistic in a world where people fight for every HP. You probably saw that I am also working on breakouts for that to improve this in a way.
Some things about patterns. Can you see a 32/64 step sequence completely on the MC909 on one screen with all it's relations (notes, gates/triggers etc..). I think that is only something for computers.
You can have all kind of note lengths / patterns and simply combine them to be 64 bars with notes that play as long or short as you want with the NerdSEQ. The sequencer screen allows you to nicely combine them and you still keep a good view on them.
I totally agree that it is not the workflow for everyone. But so is the same thing between different DAWs of a computer or even grooveboxes from different manufacturers. You either dig it (and take your time to understand and work with it) or not. They are many options.
If you want to stay in rack with your sequencing, then these are the things you got to deal with. Rackspace, ergonimics, functionality etc... but happily they are many options out there to cover everyones workflow.
Not sure what you mean about them being on reverb now. I can see only listings from shops/distributors and one 2nd hand.
