So what? It's only an example. I expect people who are using this module
to know the MIDI spec.

Several of my synths can be programmed to react in totally different
ways to note-off velocity via the modulation matrix.

The example is a bit strange anyway, since channel 10 is reserved for
drums in the General MIDI spec.
